Hi
*Note Standard equation of a line is given as A*x + B*y = C
.
First using the point-slope form
y+=+m%2A%28x+-+x+%5B1%5D+%29+%2B+y+%5B1%5D
.
Substituting the slope(m = -3) and P(3,5)
y+=+-3%2A%28x+-+3%29+%2B+5
y+=+-3%2Ax+%2B+9+%2B+5
.
-14=+-3%2Ax+-y+ multiply both sides of equation by -1
3%2Ax+%2By=14+
