A. First, find the slope, which is -0.5, and then insert it into point-slope form, which is y-y1=m(x-x1), or y-1=-0.5(x+5). That's point-slope form.


B. First, distribute -0.5 to both terms in the parenthesis, to get y-1=-0.5x-2.5, and lastly add 1 to both sides to get the slope-intercept form of y=-0.5x-1.5
