"Write Equation of a line"

USE: Y-Y1=M (x-y1); replace(x1,y1) and M.
How would I take that formula and use it on a problem like,,, y-2=-5(x+6)??????

x1,y1= -6,2, M=-5

check my thinking.
It actually turned out to be, y=5x+32. Somehow (haha) I am glad I am in stupider classes in high school or I would be totally failing. Thanks alot though Bob.(:
