This is just reading the formula.

Remember what the point-slope form equation comes from.
Variable point (x,y)
Given point (h,k)
Slope is
The point-slope form is just a rearrangement of this.

Given the​ point-slope equation y plus 8 equals negative 6 left parenthesis x minus 7 right parenthesis commay+8=−6(x−7), state the slope and the indicated point of the graph
            y + 8 = - 6(x - 7)

Compare to: 

It's obvious that: , and so: 

Also, m = - 6

And, , and so, 





That's it....nothing COMPLEX!!
