Hey there! I'm happy to help!
First we need to find the slope, which is the incline of the line. To do this, you divide the difference of the y values by the difference of the the x values.
3-8=-5
-2-0=-2
-5/-2=5/2
To find the y-intercept, you want to find where the line hits the y-axis. Well, the point (0,8) tells us that the y-intercept is 8. The y-axis is where x=0, so our y-intercept is 8.
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
So....
y=5/2x+8.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
y = 5/2 x + 8
Step-by-step explanation: Find the slope of the line
y - y so 8 - 3 = 5 = 5/2 is the slope
x- x 0 - -2 0 + 2
The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y axis or (0, 8) where x is 0 and y is b
y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept (where x = 0)
(x, y) are coordinate points on the line
So, y = 5/2x + 8
