Graphs and the Equations of a Line (8, 0), m = -3 please show steps
====================================================================
standard for for the line is y = mx +b
=====================================================================
y = -3x + b
we are given when y is 0, x is 8
0 = -3*8 +b
b = 24
========================================================
equation of line is y = -3x +24
=========================================================
