Answer:

The line of the equation is:


y-7=5\left(x+8\right)

Explanation:

Given

  • m=5
  • point (-8, 7)

As the point-slope form is given by


y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

where m is the slope

substituting the values m=5 and the point (-8, 7)


y-7=5\left(x-\left(-8\right)\right)


\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:-\left(-a\right)=a


y-7=5\left(x+8\right)

Therefore, the line of the equation is:


y-7=5\left(x+8\right)
