1. **State the problem:** Write an equation in point-slope form for a line with slope $\frac{3}{5}$ passing through the point $(-2, 6)$.
2. **Recall the point-slope form formula:**
$$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$$
where $m$ is the slope and $(x_1, y_1)$ is a point on the line.
3. **Substitute the given values:**
$$y - 6 = \frac{3}{5}(x - (-2))$$
which simplifies to
$$y - 6 = \frac{3}{5}(x + 2)$$
4. **Explain:** This equation represents the line with slope $\frac{3}{5}$ passing through $(-2, 6)$ in point-slope form.
**Final answer:**
$$y - 6 = \frac{3}{5}(x + 2)$$
