Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y=mx+b\\ \\ m=\frac{-7-8}{8-\ -2}=\frac{-15}{10}=\ -\frac{3}{2}\\ \\ y=\ -\frac{3x}{2}+b,\ (-2,8)\\ \\ 8=\ -\frac{3(-2)}{2}+b\\ \\ 8=3+b,\ b=5\\ \\ y=\frac{10-3x}{2}[/tex]

Answer:   y  = - 3/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation in slope intercept form, you will have to find the slope and the y-intercept.

(-2,8) (8,-7)  

To find the slope using these points, you will find the difference in the y coordinates and divide it by the difference in the x coordinates.

-7 - 8 = - 15

8 - (-2) = 10

   Slope:   -15/10   =  -3/2  

The slope is  -3/2

Now using the formula y=mx+b  , use one of the given points and the slope to solve for b , which is the y-intercept.

     8  = -3/2(-2) + b

    8 = 3 + b

   -3     -3

    b = 5
