Observe the figure, first find the y-intercept value by replacing m with
1, y with
1 and x with 4 in the equation
.

(Product of two different signs is negative)
Apply additon property of equality: If a = b then a + c = b + c. \ \
\
(Add 4 to each side)
(Apply commutative property of addition:
)
(Apply additive inverse proeprty:
)
(Add:
)
Replace m with
1 and b with 3 in the equation
.

(Simplify)
The slope-intercept form line equation is
.
