Answer:

The answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

Equation of the line using point (1 , - 2) and slope 1/3 is

y + 2 = 1/3( x - 1)

Multiply through by 3

That's

3y + 6 = x - 1

Simplify

x - 3y - 1 - 6 = 0

We have the final answer as

x - 3y - 7 = 0

Hope this helps you
