Answer:

(y - 5) = -2(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point Slope Form:  (y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Step 1:  Find the slope

m = [tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{-1 - 5}{5 - 2}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{-6}{3}[/tex]

m = -2

Step 2:  Plug into Point Slope Form

(y - 5) = -2(x - 2)

Answer:  (y - 5) = -2(x - 2)
