Answer:

y-3=6(x+8)

Explanation:

Ugh here goes

the point-slope form of an equation is y=mx+c

we have m with is the slope and we have x and y ( -8,3) we neec C which is the y intercept so put all the information in the equation and solve for c

3=6(-8)+c

3=-48+c

0=-48-3+c

c=51

so the equation is y=6x+51

take 3 from 51 and put it on the other side

y-3=6x+48

or

y-3=6(x+8)
