Answer 1

8

Explanation:

1. y+9=8(x-2)

2. y+9=8x-16

3. y=8x-25

8x=slope of 8

Answer 2

y + 9 = 8(x - 2)

First, distribute the 8 across the parentheses.

y + 9 = 8x - 16

Now, combine the constants by subtracting 9 from both sides.

y = 8x - 25

Your equation is now in slope intercept form: y = mx + b

m is your slope.

In this case, m = 8; therefore, your slope is 8.
