Find an equation of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope. Express your answer in slope-intercept form.
(8,0), m= -3
**
Standard form of equation for a straight line: y=mx+b, m=slope, b=y-intercept.
y=-3x+b
solving for b using coordinates of given point(8,0)
0=-3*8+b
b=24
Equation: y=-3x+24x
