Answer:

y = 5/4x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

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

y = 5/4x+b

Substitute the point into the equation and solve for b

-5 = 5/4(8)+b

-5 = 10+b

Subtract 10 from each side

-5-10 = b

-15 = b

y = 5/4x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y'=m(x-x')

y-(-5)=5/4(x-8)

y+5=5x/4-10

4(y+5)=4(5x/4)-10(4)

4y+20=5x-40

4y-5x=-40-20

4y-5x=-60

5x-4y-60=0

y=5x/4-15
