[tex]\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{8}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{8-5}{-1-2}\implies \cfrac{3}{-3}\implies -1 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-5=-1(x-2)[/tex]
