1. Problem Description

The problem asks to write the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+by = mx + b, where mm is the slope and bb is the y-intercept.

2. Solution Steps

First, find the y-intercept. From the graph, the line intersects the y-axis at (0,7)(0, 7). Thus, the y-intercept b=7b = 7.
Next, find the slope of the line. We can pick two points on the line to calculate the slope. Let's choose the points (0,7)(0, 7) and (1,4)(1, 4).
The slope mm is given by the formula:
m=y2y1x2x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
Using the points (0,7)(0, 7) and (1,4)(1, 4), we have:
m=4710=31=3m = \frac{4 - 7}{1 - 0} = \frac{-3}{1} = -3
Now that we have the slope m=3m = -3 and the y-intercept b=7b = 7, we can write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:
y=mx+by = mx + b
y=3x+7y = -3x + 7

3. Final Answer

y=3x+7y = -3x + 7
