Answer: $y= x-8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form has a general formula of $y=mx +b$
m represents the slope of the line
b represents the value of the lines y-intercept

the equation must be rearranged into the general formula by isolating for 'y'

$y-x=-8$

to remove the x from the left side of the equation the opposite operation must be done to both sides

$y-x+x=-8+x$

the negative and positive x cancel out on the left side, leaving us with the equation with y by itself
now you can rearrange to put the equation into $y=mx+b$
