Answer:

y = -9/8x +7

Step-by-step explanation:

We know two points on the line so we can find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = ( -2 -7)/(8 -0)

  = -9/8

We also know the y intercept which is 7

The slope intercept form of the line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -9/8x +7

Answer:

[tex]y=-\frac{9}{8}x+7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b

Use the formula for slope: m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-2-7)/(8-0)

m=-9/8

The graph shows that b, the y-intercept, is at (0,7)

Therefore, the final equation is [tex]y=-\frac{9}{8}x+7[/tex]
