The point-slope form of the equation of a line is given by:
\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]
where \( m \) is the slope, and \( (x_1, y_1) \) is a point on the line.
Given a slope \( m = 2 \) and the point \( (-5, 4) \):
- \( x_1 = -5 \)
- \( y_1 = 4 \)
Plugging these values into the point-slope form equation:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x - (-5))
\]
Which simplifies to:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x + 5)
\]
This is the point-slope form of the equation of the line.
\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]
where \( m \) is the slope, and \( (x_1, y_1) \) is a point on the line.

I apologize for any misunderstanding. Let’s clarify the point-slope form of the equation step by step again.
The point-slope form is given by:
\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]
where \( m \) is the slope and \((x_1, y_1)\) is a point on the line.
Given:
- Slope \( m = 2 \)
- Point \( (x_1, y_1) = (-5, 4) \)
Substituting these values into the formula gives:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x - (-5))
\]
Which simplifies to:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x + 5)
\]
So the correct point-slope form of the equation of the line is:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x + 5)
\]
If I misunderstood or you meant something different about the number "5," please clarify, and I'll be happy to help!

I apologize for the mistake! Let's correct the point-slope form of the equation accurately:
For the point-slope form:
\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]
Given:
- The slope \( m = 2 \)
- The point \( (x_1, y_1) = (-5, 4) \)
Substituting these values in, we have:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x - (-5))
\]
This simplifies as follows:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x + 5)
\]
Now, to clarify:
When substituting \( x_1 = -5 \), we do indeed get \( x - (-5) \) which is the same as \( x + 5 \).
If you were referring to a different aspect or a specific detail, please let me know! As of now, the equation \( y - 4 = 2(x + 5) \) is correct based on the initial slope and point given.

Yes! Let’s summarize it clearly.
Given:
- **Slope**: \( m = 2 \)
- **Point**: \( (x_1, y_1) = (-5, 4) \)
In the point-slope form of the line:
\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]
Substituting the slope and the coordinates of the point:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x - (-5))
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x + 5)
\]
When you input the point \((-5, 4)\) into the formula, the equation correctly includes the term \( (x + 5) \) because \( x - (-5) = x + 5 \).
So overall, the point-slope form remains correct as:
\[
y - 4 = 2(x + 5)
\]
If you were questioning specifically about how \(-5\) is being used in this context, yes, we keep the \(-5\) as gained from the coordinates of the point through which the line passes. Please let me know if you have any further questions!
