Answer 1

Answer:

$y = x - 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is:

$y = mx + b$

Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

It is stated that the slope of the line is 1.

It is stated that the line includes the point (0, 8)

To find the y-intercept, we can just inverse the slope-intercept form to solve for b.

$b =y-mx$

We know that the point (8, 0) falls on the line, so that's what we'll use for x and y.

Then, we just have to plug those numbers in, as well as the slope.

$b = 0 - (1)(8)$

Simplify.

$b = 0 - 8$

Simplify again.

$b = -8$

Now, we know that b = -8.

All we have left is to plug the slope and y-intercept into the slope-intercept form.

$y = x - 8$
