Point slope is y-y1=m(x-x1)
Keep y and x as they are (do not plug anything in for those).
Variable m is the slope.
x1 and y1 are part of the point, which is in (x, y) form.
With the information given, plug each into the equation.
m= 2 (It's the slope)
x1=-8
y1=5
Put these variables into the equation like this-
y-5=2(x--8)
The two negatives cancel out (between x and 8) so your final answer is-
y-5=2(x+8)
