Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

You can use the two points marked to find the slope. One of them is the y intercept which you need to get the equation.

(0,4) is one of the points. This is the y intercept.

(8,0) is the other point you can use

Slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Givens

y2 = 4

y1 = 0

x2 = 0

x1 = 8

Solution

m = (4 - 0) / (0 - 8)

m = 4/-8

m = - 1/2

y_intercept = 4

Equation

y = -1/2 x + 4
