The point-slope form the line which has the value of slope -5 and contains a point as A(2,-1) is (y+1)=-5(x-2).

<h3>What is point slope form?</h3>

The point slope  form of a line is the expression of line which has a specified slope and passes through a point.

The point slope form is givne as,

(y-y₁)=m(x-x₁)

Here, m is the slope of the line, x₁ is the x coordinate of the point by which line passes and y₁ is the y coordinate of the same point.

The slope of a line is -5. This line contains the point A (2,-1). Thus, the point slope form is,

(y-y₁)=m(x-x₁)

(y-(-1))=-5(x-2)

(y+1)=-5(x-2)

Thus, the point-slope form the line which has the value of slope -5 and contains a point as A(2,-1) is (y+1)=-5(x-2).
