Answer:

y = 5x - 56

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the gradient and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 5, thus

y = 5x + c ← is the partial equation of the line

To find c substitute (8, - 16) into the partial equation

- 16 = 40 + c ⇒ c = - 16 - 40 = - 56

y = 5x - 56 ← equation of line
