y = -2/3x + 6 is written in slope-intercept form.

-2/3 = slope

6 = y-intercept

Point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Put the values we are given into the final equation:

y - 8 = -2/3(x + 3)

Best of Luck!

Answer:

y -8 = -2/3(x +3)

Explanation:

y=-2/3x+6

This is in slope intercept form (y= mx+b) so the slope is -2/3

We have a point (-3,8)

Point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y -8 = -2/3(x --3)

y -8 = -2/3(x +3)
