Answer:

y = 3x - 7

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 3 , then

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (4, 5) into the partial equation

5 = 12 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 12 = - 7

y = 3x - 7 ← equation of line
