Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!!

Just simply work with it.

We know that we have to use one point formula to find the equation of a st.line passing through point and slope is given.

So, just do accordingly.

The point is (2,-6) and slope is -1.

[tex](y - y1) = m(x - x1)[/tex]

Where, "m" is a slope.

Put all values.

[tex](y + 6) = - 1(x - 2)[/tex]

Simplify them to get answer.

[tex](y + 6) = - x + 2[/tex]

[tex]y = - x - 4[/tex]

Therefore the equation is y= -x-4 OR can be written as x+y+4=0.

Hope it helps....
