Explanation:

We have (y - (-3)) = 4(x - 7).

=> y + 3 = 4x - 28

=> y = 4x - 31

=> 4x - y = 31.

Answer:


\sf 4x - y = 31

Explanation:

In order to find the equation of the line in standard form, we can use the following formula:

Ax + By + C = 0

where A, B, and C are real numbers, and A and B are not both zero.

We can use the point-slope form of the equation of a line to find the values of A, B, and C.

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is:


\sf y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

where
\sf (x_1, y_1) =(7,-3) is a point on the line and m = 4 is the slope of the line.

In this case, we have:


\sf y - (-3) = 4(x - 7)

Open bracket:


\sf y + 3 = 4x - 28

Add 28 on both sides:


\sf y + 3 +28= 4x - 28 +28


\sf y + 31= 4x

Subtract y on both sides:


\sf y + 31 - y = 4x - y


\sf 4x - y = 31

Therefore, an equation in the standard form of the line is:


\sf 4x - y = 31
