Answer: (y - 7) = M*(x - 4)

Explanation:

Point-slope form is written as:

y - y1 = M*(x - x1)

where M is the slope, and the point is (x1, y1)

In this case we only know the point, so we can write this as:

(y - 7) = M*(x - 4)

Where the value of the slope is not known, then we have infinite possible lines defined in that equation
