Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope= x÷y

So. m= -2

For y intercept consider equation

y= 2x-8

y=mx+c where c is y intercept

Hence y intercept is 8 as slope is negative

Answer:

m = 2 and b = -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the most commonly used equations of straight lines is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Comparing the given y = 2x - 8 to y = mx + b, we see that m = 2 and b = -8.
