Given the standard form of the equation:


\text{ x + y = 8}

Writing in slope-intercept form, the equation must be similar to y = mx + b, solving the equation of y in terms of x.

We get,


\text{ x + y = 8}
\text{ x + y - x = 8 - x}
\text{ y = -x + 8}

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation x + y = 8 is y = -x + 8.
