Question 995437: The graph of a linear relationship, that defines y in terms of x, passes through the points (8,2) and (5,−5.23) .
From the point (8,2) x must change -8 to reach a value of x=0.
What is the corresponding change in the value of y for the change in x?
Thank you in advance!

The slope is -7.23/-3
That is 2.41, the corresponding change in y for a change in x or the slope
When x changes -8, y must change -19.28,
y-y1=2.41(x-x1)
y-2=2.41(x-8)
y=2.41x-17..28
The y-intercept is where x=0. It is -17.28
