The slope is , and y-intercept is 8.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is ,

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

                                     (Substitute m = , and b = 8)

Graph of the equation is

\
• Draw a coordinate plane
\
• Plot the y-intercept (0, 8)
\
• The slope is . From (0, 8), move 2 units down and right 1 unit. Plot the point.
\
• Draw a line through the two points.
