Answer:

This problem is in Point Slope form:

To turn it to Slope-Intercept form, you must follow these simple steps below⤵⤵⤵:

  1. Distribute -3 among everything inside the parenthesis to get y + 4 = -3x + 6.
  2. Subtract 4 from 6 to get y = -3x + 2.

To turn it to Standard Form, you must follow these simple steps below⤵⤵⤵:

  1. Use the Slope-Intercept form of this equation, in order to convert it.
  2. Add 3x on both sides of the equal sign, to get 3x + y = 2.

Hope this helps you :)
