Answer:

[tex]y=3x+1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation is already in a point/slope form: it passes through (-7,2) and has a slope of 3.

We can re-use the slope right away, and replace the point coordinates:

[tex]y-(-5) = 3 (x-(-2))[/tex]

At this point is just trying to write it down in a better-looking form

[tex]\\y+5 = 3x+6\\y=3x+1[/tex]
