Answer:

x + 3y = 15

Explanation:

Line is passing through the points
(3, \:4) = (x_1,\:y_1)\:and\: (9, 2)=(x_2,\:y_2)

Slope of line (m)= (2 - 4)/(9 - 3) = -2/6 = -1/3

Equation of line in point-slope form is given as:


y-y_1 =m(x-x_1)

Plugging the values of
x_1,\: y_1\: and \: m in the above equation we find:


y-4 =-(1)/(3)(x-3)


\implies 3y-12 =-x+3


\implies x+ 3y =12+3


\implies \huge {\orange{\boxed{x+ 3y = 15}}}

This is the required equation of line in the form
