Answer:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = 8(x - (-4))

y - 6 = 8(x + 4)

y - 6 = 8x + 32

y = 8x + 32 + 6

y = 8x + 38

Explanation:

First you input the given values ( m = 8 and (-4, 6)) into the point-slope equation.

After that, you multiply the 8 by the two terms inside the parentheses, giving you 8x and 32.

Then you add 6 to both sides of the equation to isolate the y.

The slope-intercept equation ends up looking like this: y = 8x + 38

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

y = 8x + 38

Explanation:

To find the slope we set up y = mx + b and plug m (our slope) in and then plug in the point into x and y to find b (our y-intercept)

y = mx + b

y = 8x + b

6 = 8(-4) + b

6 = -32 + b

+32 +32

38 = b

So using our slope and our intercept we have our slope intercept

y = mx + b

y = 8x + 38

Hope this helps :)
