Answer:
y = 1/3 x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write the equation of a line as
y = mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 1/2x +b
Substitute the point into the equation
-8 = 1/2 (-6) +b
-8 = -3 +b
Add 3 to each side
-8+3 = -3 +3 +b
-5 = b
I don't know the value of either, could you add more information?
I'd be glad to help.
