For this case we have that by definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

[tex]y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})[/tex]

Where:

m: It's the slope

[tex](x_ {0}, y_ {0}):[/tex] It is a point through which the line passes

According to the statement data we have:

[tex]m = 5\\(x_ {0}, y_ {0}): (- 8,1)[/tex]

Substituting we have:

[tex]y-1 = 5 (x - (- 8))[/tex]

By law of signs of multiplication we have to:

[tex]- * - = +\\y-1 = 5 (x + 8)[/tex]

Answer:

The requested equation is: [tex]y-1 = 5 (x + 8)[/tex]
