Answer:

Point-slope is the general form y-y₁=m(x-x₁) for linear equations. It emphasizes the slope of the line and a point on the line (that is not the y-intercept).

Answer: y - 2 = -6/5(x - 0)

You use the equation (y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Where y1 and x1 are coordinates of a point on the equation.

If the y intercept is 2, then the point (0, 2) is on the equation.
