The standard form:

[tex]Ax+By=C[/tex]

The point-slope form:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

m - slope

The formula of a slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have the points (6, 1) and (5, 4). Substitute:

[tex]m=\dfrac{4-1}{5-6}=\dfrac{3}{-1}=-3[/tex]

[tex]y-1=-3(x-1)[/tex]      use distributive property

[tex]y-1=-3x+3[/tex]          add 1 to both sides

[tex]y=-3x+4[/tex]         add 3x to both sides

[tex]\boxed{3x+y=4}[/tex]
