Answer:

[tex] \huge y = - 3x - 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line when given the slope and a point we use the formula

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]y - 5 = - 3(x + 2) \\ y - 5 = - 3x - 6 \\ y = - 3x - 6 + 5[/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]y = - 3x - 1[/tex]

Hope this helps you
