The question is not complete, but there is enough information to solve your question.

Answer:


\displaystyle y-1=-(2)/(3)(x+5)

Explanation:

Equation of a line

Given the slope of a line (m) and a point through which it passes (h,k), the slope-point form of the line is determined as follows:

y-k=m(x-h)

We are given the point (-5,1) and the slope m=-2/3. The equation of the line is:


\boxed{\displaystyle y-1=-(2)/(3)(x+5)}
