Answer:

The answer is


\huge y + 1 = 15(x - 3) \\

Explanation:

To find an equation of a line in point slope form when given the slope and a point we use the formula


y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question we have the final answer as


y + 1 = 15(x - 3)
