Explanation:

This is a straight line equation. We only need two points to draw a straight line.

Choose two different numbers, put them into the equation instead of x, and calculate the value of y.

y=-(1)/(8)x+2

for x = 8

$y=-(1)/(8)\cdot8+2=-(8)/(8)+2=-1+2=1$

for x = -8

$y==-(1)/(8)\cdot(-8)+2=(8)/(8)+2=1+2=3$

Mark the points in the coordinate system and draw a straight line through the given points.
