Answer:

y = -8x -3

Explanation:

To find the y intercept of a basic y = mx + b equation you simply find the constant (In Algebra, a constant is a number on its own, or sometimes a letter such as a, b or c to stand for a fixed number). To find the slope of a basic y = mx + b equation find the value of m. The value of m will be the slope.
