Answer:

y=-5x

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

m= -5 and (5,-6) --> 5 is x1 and -6 is y1

Put the numbers in the formula

  • y-(-6) = -5(x-5)

'simplify'

  • y+6=-5x+25

Subtract 6 from both sides

  • y=-5x+19

If you want to check your work to make sure it goes through the point (5,-6), I recommend using GeoGebra. It is free and you can use it on your computer or your mobile device
