Answer:

y = - 3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

3x + y - 1 = 0 ( subtract 3x - 1 from both sides )

y = - 3x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (1, 4) into the partial equation

4 = - 3 + c ⇒ c = 4 + 3 = 7

y = - 3x + 7 ← equation of line in form y = mx + c
