slope-intercept form?
Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

y =
`(1)/(4)` x - 6

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

given m =
`(1)/(4)` , then

y =
`(1)/(4)` x + c ← is the partial equation

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

- 8 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = - 8 + 2 = - 6

y =
`(1)/(4)` x - 6 ← equation of line
