    The first thing you should know is the gradient definition for a line.

    The gradient of a straight line tells us how much inclination it has. Therefore, the gradient of a line represents the slope of the line.

    We have then that the generic equation of the line is:

    y-yo = m (x-xo)

    Substituting the values:

    y-3 = 3 (x-2)

    Rewriting:

    y-3 = 3x-6

    y = 3x-6 + 3

    y = 3x-3

    y = 3 (x-1)

    Answer:

    The equation of the line is:

    y = 3 (x-1)
