y=-7x+22y=7x+22

Explanation:

"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is.

•color(white)(x)y=mx+bxy=mx+b

"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept

y-1=-7(x-3)larrcolor(blue)"distribute and rearrange"y1=7(x3)distribute and rearrange

y-1=-7x+21y1=7x+21

rArry=-7x+22larrcolor(red)"in slope-intercept form"y=7x+22in slope-intercept form
