y – 6 = negative five-eighths(x – 10)
y – 6 = Image with alt text: negative five-eighths ( x – 10)

y – 6 = negative five-eighths(x + 10)
y – 6 = Image with alt text: negative five-eighths ( x + 10)

y + 6 = negative five-eighths(x + 10)
y + 6 = Image with alt text: negative five-eighths ( x + 10)

y + 10 = negative five-eighths(x + 6)
y + 10 = Image with alt text: negative five-eighths ( x + 6)

The correct equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope is:

y - (-6) = (-5/8)(x - (-10))

Simplifying this equation, we get:

y + 6 = (-5/8)(x + 10)
