Answer:


y = (3)/(4) x-8

Explanation:

You can us the equation y = m x + c to answer this question.

In ,

y = m x + c

m = slope

c = y - intercept

So, they have already given in the question that,

m = 3/4

c = (-8)

Therefore, you can simply put 3/4 and (-8) instead of m and c respectively like this.

y = m x + c

y = 3/4x - 8

Hope this helps you.

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)
