Answer:

y = x + 2

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form equation is ...

y = mx + b . . . . . . slope m, y-intercept b

We are given the slope, so we only need to find the y-intercept. When we solve for b, we find ...

y - mx = b . . . . . . subtract mx

8 - 1(6) = b = 2 . . . . fill in given values of (x, y) and m

Then the equation of the line is ...

y = x +2
