Answer:
Aonnalin, great name :) answer as below
Step-by-step explanation:
They tell us to use slope-intercept form. This is something you will just have to remember y = mx+b
It is confusing b/c there is the other one, the point-slope formula too. but just remember both and know that the point-slope one is to get to the slope-intercept one. y-y1 = m(x-x1)
m= slope
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
P1= (0,7) in the form (x1,y1)
P2 =(8,-2) in the form (x2,y2)
m = -2-7 / 8-0
m = -9 / 8
now that we have the slope, just use either point with the point-slope
y-7 = (-9/8)(x-0)
y-7 = -9x/8
y = -9x/8 + 7
y = [tex]\frac{-9}{8}[/tex] X + 7
slope-intercept form :)
