Answer:

y = 3x -10

Explanation:

To do this problem, we need to do 3 things.

1. Identify the Point-Slope equation!

*This equation will help us when we have just the slope and 1 coordinate.

The equation is ⇒ y - y1 = m(x - x1)

2. Next, let's identify the slope of the equation in Part 1

The slope is always the coefficient of x!

In this case, the slope is 3!

3. The final step is to plug everything in!

Point C has 4 as the x and 2 as the y, so we will be plugging these numbers in where it says x1 and y1 in the point-slope equation.

Plug in 3 for the letter m in the equation. M is the slope.

Let's do it!

y - 2 = 3 ( x - 4 )

Now simplify this equation!

y - 2 = 3x - 12

y = 3x - 12 + 2

y = 3x -10

FINAL ANSWER: y = 3x -10

We did it! I hope I helped. Let me know if you have questions about my answer.
