Answer:

Slope-Intercept: y = 10x - 82 Point Slope form: y + 2= 10(x - 8)

Explanation:

To create a Slope-Intercept form, you need to first find the y-intercept. To do that, you need to plug in the coordinates in the eqaution so far, y = 10x +b.

y = 10x +b.

-2 = 10(8) + b

-2 = 80 + b

-82 = b

y = 10x - 82

Point Slope form: y + 2= 10(x - 8)
