You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = mx + b [Use the slope-intercept formula]
y=(3/4)x-8 [Convert to the y=mx+b format by solving for "y"]
y = any value for y on the line
m = the slope of the line
x = any corresponding value of x on the line
b = the y-intercept where the line crosses the y-axis
So, y-intercept = b = -8
