Hi,         

the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b  

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.  

 In this case b = 8 and 

the slope is -3/2 = -1 using   (5-8)/(3-0)

Slope can also be determined by graphing. 

Note:line slants to left, slope is negative 

And as y changes by one, so does x

 y = -x + 8
