An equation in point-slope form follows a specific format.
y- y_1= m(x- x_1)
In this form, m is the slope and the point ( x_1, y_1) lies on the graph of the line. We are given the point ( - 2, 3) and the slope - 2, so we have everything we need to create a point-slope form equation.
Please note that there are infinitely many equations equivalent to this one. Any point lying on the line could be used to create an equation. However, since we are given this point, this one is easiest!
