Answer: y+1=-7 (x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for point-slope form is y-y1= m (x-x1)

Step 1- Finding the slope by using formula    [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]:

(5,-1) (6,-8) or (x1, y1) (x2, y2)

-8+1 = -7

6-5 = 1

Slope + -7/1 or -7

Step 2- Then insert numbers in point slope form:

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y+1 = -7 (x-5)
