    If the equation of a line passes through the points (1, 3) and (0, 0), which form would be used to write the equation of the line?

    Typing (1,3),(0,0) into the search engine, we get a point-slope form:
    y - 3 = 3(x - 1)

    If we want mx + b form, we have:
    y - 3 = 3x - 3

    Add 3 to each side:
    y = 3x
