(y-0)=(4)/(3)(x-3)

1) Point slope form equations are written according to this general formula:


(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)_{}

2) Since we've got the slope and one point we can plug them into the formula:


\begin{gathered} (y-0)=(4)/(3)(x-3) \\ y=(4)/(3)x-4 \end{gathered}

That yields the equation of the line y=4/3x -4 (slope-intercept form). So in Point Slope form, the answer is:

(y-0)=4/3(x-3)
