Answer:


\displaystyle y + 3 = -2(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Point-Slope Formula [y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)], all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so be EXTREMELY CAREFUL inserting the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT SIGNS.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
