Standard form of the equation is #color(brown)(2x - y = 5#

Point-Slope form of equation is

#(y - y_1 = m * (x - x_1)#

Given : #m = 2, x_1 = 3, y_1 = 1#

#y - 1 = 2 * (x - 3)#

#2x - y = 6 - 1 = 5#

Standard form of linear equation is #ax + by = c#

Standard form of the given equation is #color(brown)(2x - y = 5#
