Use the "point-slope" equation for the line, and replace. The point-slope equation is:y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where:

* x1 and y1 are the coordinates of the point, and

* m is the slope

the slope = (y - y1)/(x - x1). Accordingly, -3 = (y - 8)/(x - 7). The result is -3x + 21 = y - 8 or y = 29 - 3x

If you mean: (7, 8) then it is y = -3x+29

To find the equation of a line you must know at least one point through which the line passes and the slope of the line?

yes because you will need the slope and y-intercept to find the equation of a line and the point through which the line passes is the y-intercept so it is yes!!!!!!! Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!
