-----------point-slope form
---------- a possible expression of equation in slope-intercept form
An equation of the line that passes through the point (a,b) and has the slope "m" is
y-b = m*(x-a).
In your case an equation of the line is
y - 3 = .
It is just your answer.
You can transform this equation to any other equivalent form.
