ANSWER


y + 1=2(x-6)

Step-by-step explanation

The point-slope form of a line is given by;


y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where


m = 2

is the slope of the line and (6,-1) is point.

We substitute the point and the slope into the formula to obtain:


y + 1=2(x-6)

Hence the b point slope form of the line with the given properties is
