Point-Slope Form: y-7=-5(x-2)

Slope-Intercept Form: y=-5x-3

Explanation:

We can write this in point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1), where (x_1,y_1) is a point on the line, and m is the slope.

\implies y-7=-5(x-(-2))

\implies y-7=-5(x+2)

This can also be converted to slope-intercept form:

y-7=-5x-10

\implies y=-5x-3
