The equation of the line is y = -3/4x + 5

How to determine the equation

The equation of a line is expressed as;

y = mx + c

Where;

  • m is the slope of the line
  • c is the intercept on the y axis
  • y is the point at the y  -axis
  • x is the point at the x - axis

To determine the intercept, we have;

2= -3/ 4(8) + c

2 = -24/8 + c

2 = -3 + c

Make 'c' the subject of formula

c = 2 + 3

c = 5

The equation of the line is y = -3/4x + 5

Thus, the equation of the line is y = -3/4x + 5
