    Answer:

    The answer to the question provided is:

    y + 1 = - \frac{6}{13} (x + 8)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    ❃Incase you forgot what the point-slope formula is ☟

    y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

    ❃Incase you also forgot, what the slope formula is ☟

    m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

    ➊ First: We are going to be solving for the slope.

    m = \frac{ - 7 - ( - 1)}{5 - ( - 8)} = \frac{ - 6}{ \: 13} = - \frac{6}{13}

    ➋Second: Plug in.

    y + 1 = - \frac{6}{13} (x + 8)
