Answer:

B. y=4x+27

Explanation:

Currently, this equation is written is point-slope form, so we need to change it to slope-intercept form, which looks like this: y=mx+b.

y+5=4(x+8) Distribute.

y+5=4x+32 Subtract 5 on both sides.

-5 -5

y=4x+27

Therefore, the answer is B.

Hope this helps and have a nice day ^^
