Solution

Sure, to write the equation of a line in point-slope form, you need a point on the line (x1,y1)(x_1, y_1) and the slope mm. The point-slope form of the equation of a line is given by:

yy1=m(xx1) y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Given:

  • The point (x1,y1)=(5,7)(x_1, y_1) = (-5, 7)
  • The slope mm

Since the slope mm is not provided in your question, I'll assume you meant to provide it. Let's denote the slope as mm.

Now, substitute the given point and the slope into the point-slope form equation:

y7=m(x+5) y - 7 = m(x + 5)

This is the equation of the line in point-slope form that passes through the point (5,7)(-5, 7) with slope mm. If you provide the value of mm, I can substitute it into the equation for you.
