hey i need some help with this one.

Answer:
y = -2x - 8
Here's how I got that:
- You first assign the points -
(-8, 8) → x1 = -8, y1 = 8
(1, -10) → x2 = 1, y2 = -10
- Now you plug those points into slope formula and solve-
[tex]s=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
↓
((-10) - 8)/(1 - (-8))
↓
-18/9
↓
slope = -2
- Now we plug the numbers we got into intercept formula -
b = y1 − s ⋅ x1
↓
8 - (-2) · (-8)
↓
y-intercept = -8
- Put everything together and you get.. -
y = -2x - 8
~That's all folks~

[tex]\text{Given that,}\\\\(x_1,y_1) = (-8,8) ~ \text{and}~ (x_2,y_2) = (1,-10)\\\\\text{Slope, m}= \dfrac{y_2- y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \dfrac{-10-8}{1+8} = -\dfrac{18}{9} =-2\\\\\\\text{Equation with given points,}\\\\y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\\\\implies y = m(x-x_1)+y_1\\\\\implies y = -2(x+8) + 8\\\\\implies y = -2x -16 +8\\\\\implies y = -2x -8[/tex]
