Tried this but cant seem to get it, would appreciate some assistance.

http://zonalandeducation.com/mmts/functionInstitute/linearFunctions/psPic.gif plug the (x,y) values there, along with the slope

So it would look like y - 9(1) = 4/9(x-3(1))?

well, nevermind the "1" in the point-slope graphic there, it just stands for 
$$
y_2-y_1=m(x_2-x_1)
$$

So the answer would be B correct?
