Using the slope -6%2F5 and the point (2,-2) apply the point-slope formula
y - y1 = m(x-x-1)
..
y - -2 = -6%2F5(x-2)
..
y + 2 = %28-6%2F5%29x+-+%28-6%2F5%29%282%29
...
y + 2 = %28-6%2F5%29x+%2B+12%2F5
...
y = %28-6%2F5%29x+%2B+12%2F5+-+2
...
y = %28-6%2F5%29x+%2B+12%2F5+-+2%285%2F5%29
...
y = %28-6%2F5%29x+%2B+12%2F5+-+10%2F5
