Answer:

(13, -3)

Explanation:

slope = -5/7

(6,2)

m = ( y2 - y1) / ( x2 - x1 )

-5/7 = ( y2 - 2) / ( x2 - 6 )

-5 = y2 -2

+2 +2

-3 = y2


7 = x2 - 6

+6 +6

13 = x2


Check answer again by log them in:

m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

m = ( -3 - 2 ) / ( 13 - 6 )

m = -5 / 7


I hope this helps!
