Answer:

y + 3 = 0.8(x + 2)

Explanation:

Slope of line m = 0.8


(-2,\:-3)=(x_1,\:\y_1)

Equation of line in slope point form is given as:


y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \\ \\ y - ( - 3) = 0.8 \{x - ( - 2) \} \\ \\ y + 3 = 0.8(x + 2) \\ this \: is \: the \: equation \: of \: line \: in \: point \: \\ slope \: form \\
