Answer:

y = 3x +5

Explanation:

Maybe you want the equation of the line with slope 3 through point (-2, -1).

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is useful for this:

y -k = m(x -h) . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

y +1 = 3(x +2) . . . . the equation with your point and slope

y = 3x +5 . . . . . . . rearranged to slope-intercept form
