Answer:

A

Explanation:

Point slope form is:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

This is where:

y1 is the y coordinate of a given point on the line

x1 is the x coordinate of a given point of the line

m is the slope of the line

Since we know all of this information, we can just plug our values into the equation.

Our slope is -5/7

The given point is (6,2)

We can plug our values in.

y-2=-5/7(x-6)

Therefore, the correct answer is A
