Explanation:
Rewrite the function as an equation.
![y = - (x)/(3) + 8](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/college/kwlbloox7pjwweux6tegcobcaih1d1j194.png)
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
![y = - (1)/(3) x + 8](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/college/mzoy8a2e9gr93x07b2izyk0k1ce48l1qf2.png)
Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.
Slope : - 1/3
y-intercept: (0,8)
Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values.
Graph the line using the slope and the y-intercept, or the points.
