Hey!
------------------------------------------------
They already give us the slope, so we can solve the y-intercept.
We can use (3, -2).
y = 8x + b
-2 = 8(3) + b
-2 = 24 + b
-2 - 24 = 24 + b - 24
-26 = b
------------------------------------------------
Hence, the answer is

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
Hello there! :)
Given:
x-coordinate of point = -2
y-coordinate of point = 5
Slope, or "m" = 1/5
Substitute in these values into slope-intercept formula (y = mx+b)
5 = 1/5(-2) + b
5 = -2/5 + b
25/5 = -2/5 + b
27/5 = b
Rewrite the equation:
y = 1/5x + 27/5
Graph the equation using a graphing utility:
