Basically you find the data points and fill in the values. For Point J it is (2,4). They want you to do this: (2-4,4-6)...it then becomes (-2,-2).
So
J: (-2,-2)
K: (-1, -4)
I: (-2, -5)
Those are your new points. I hope this helps love! :)

Write an equation in point slope form for the line that passes through (-5,6) and (-3,-9).

Finger [1]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad
(\stackrel{x_2}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-9})
\\\\\\
slope = m\implies
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-9-6}{-3-(-5)}\implies \cfrac{-9-6}{-3+5}\implies -\cfrac{15}{2}$

$\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll}
\cline{1-1}
\textit{point-slope form}\\
\cline{1-1}
\\
y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
\\\\
\cline{1-1}
\end{array}\implies y-6=-\cfrac{15}{2}[x-(-5)]\implies y-6=-\cfrac{15}{2}(x+5)
\\\\\\
y-6=-\cfrac{15}{2}x-\cfrac{75}{2}\implies y=-\cfrac{15}{2}x-\cfrac{75}{2}-6\implies y=-\cfrac{15}{2}x-\cfrac{87}{2}$
