Answer:

The answer is

y = 3x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a linewhen given the slope and a point we use the formula

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \\ [/tex]

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the point is (-2,-7) and slope 3 is

The equation of the line is

[tex]y + 7 = 3(x + 2) \\ y + 7 = 3x + 6 \\ y = 3x + 6 - 7[/tex]

We have the final answer as

y = 3x - 1

Hope this helps you
