Answer:

y - 6 = 9(x + 3)

Explanation:

The point slope equation of a line is: y - y1 = m(x- x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

First, plug in the slope:

y - y1 = 9(x- x1)

Now, plug in the given point:

y - 6 = 9(x + 3)

So, the equation in point slope form is y - 6 = 9(x + 3)
