Answer:

y - 3 = -3(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form is y - k = m(x - h), where (h,k) is a point on the line.  Using the given info, replace x with 0, y with 6, h with 1 and k with 3.  Then:

6 - 3 = m (0 - 1), or 3 = -m, or m = -3.  The slope is 3.  Then we have the equation

y - 3 = -3(x - 1).

Check:  Does this pass thru (1,3)?  Is 3 - 3 = -3(1 - 1) true?  Yes, it is.
