-2 = -(x-8)
-2 = -x + 8 ( - * + = - and - * - = + )
-2 - 8 = -x +8 - 8
-2 - 8 = -x
-(2+8) = - x
-10 = -x | * (-1)
x=10
Ok so you are going to want to add up the two totals of both cars, you add them because you want a straight line if the two card and how far apart they are. so 17+144= 161miles apart

(-2,0)(0,1)
slope = (1-0)/(0+2) = 1/2
passing point (3,5)
y = mx + b
5 = 1/2(3) + b
5 = 3/2 + b
5 - 3/2 = b
7/2 = b or b = 7/2
equation
y = 1/2x + 7/2
