Answer:
(b) 7x + 2y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You don't need to know how to find the equation. You just need to know how to determine if a point satisfies the equation. Try one of the points and see which equation fits. (The numbers are smaller for point K, so we prefer to use that one.)
7(1) +2(-3) = 1 ≠ -1 . . . . . tells you choice A doesn't work, and choice B does
The equation is ...
7x +2y = 1

Additional comment
The equations of choices C and D have coefficients with a common factor of 2. If the constant also had a factor of 2, we could say these equations are not in standard form, and we could reject them right away. Since the two points have integer values for x and y, we can reject these equations anyway: the sum of even numbers cannot be odd.
