Answer:

(Y-3)= -1/3(x-7)

Or

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

Steb by step explanation:

The condition for the line is (7,3) and (4,4).

Point slope form of equation is in this format below.

(Y-y1)= m(x-x1)

We have the given parameters in the above format except the m

M = gradient

Gradient= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Gradient=(4-3)/(4-7)

Gradient= 1/-3

Gradient= -1/3

So

(Y-y1)= m(x-x1)

(Y-3)= -1/3(x-7)

Or

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