Answer:

The answer is

y = - 8

Explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the line we must first find the slope

That's

Slope of the line using points

(8,-8) and (-5,-8) is


m = ( - 8 + 8)/( - 5 - 8) = (0)/( - 13) = 0

So the equation of the line using point (8,-8) is

y + 8 = 0(x - 8)

y + 8 = 0

We have the final answer as

y = - 8

Hope this helps you
