\mathbb{FINAL\;ANSWER:}


\huge\boxed{\sf{y-1=4(x+2)}}


\mathbb{SOLUTION\;WITH\;STEPS:}

Hi! Hope you are having a nice day!

We are given:

  • Slope of the line
  • A point that it passes through

Can we write the equation of the line in Point-Slope Form? Sure!

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

y-1=-4(x-(-2)

y-1=-4(x+2)

Hope you could understand everything.
