Answer:
y = - 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 )
y = - x ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 1
• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line
to find c substitute (- 8, 2 ) into the partial equation
2 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 8 = - 6
y = - x - 6 ← equation of parallel line
