To write the equation of a line in point-slope form, you typically use the formula:
\[ y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \]
where \( (x_1, y_1) \) is a point on the line and \( m \) is the slope of the line.
From your question, it seems you already have the slope and a point:
- The slope \( m \) is given as \( -3 \).
- The point \((x_1, y_1)\) is given as \( (1, y_1) \), but we need the value of \( y_1 \) to complete the point-slope form of the equation.
To find the value of \( y_1 \), we would typically look for the y-coordinate corresponding to \( x = 1 \) on the graph of the line. Since the image is not accessible, you would need to refer to the graph to find \( y_1 \).
Once you have \( y_1 \), you can simply substitute it into the point-slope form:
\[ y - y_1 = -3(x - 1) \]
If \( y_1 \) is known, you can replace \( y_1 \) in the equation. If you can determine the y-coordinate corresponding to \( x = 1 \) from the graph, that will complete your equation.
\[ y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \]
where \( (x_1, y_1) \) is a point on the line and \( m \) is the slope of the line.
