The slope-point form of a line:

[tex]y-y_0=m(x-x_0)[/tex]

We have

[tex]m=\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\(4,\ 1)\to x_0=4,\ y_0=1[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]y-1=\dfrac{3}{4}(x-4)[/tex]

The slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Solve for y:

[tex]y-1=\dfrac{3}{4}(x-4)\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\y-1=\dfrac{3}{4}x-3\qquad|\text{add 1 to both sides}\\\\y=\dfrac{3}{4}x-2[/tex]
