Answer please please

y= -5x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

So frstt you gotta know the form

y= mx+b

y= random Y-coordinate (not useful in this situation)

m= slope

x= random X coordinate (not useful in this situation)

b= y-intercept (the first point of the line that hits the y axis)

So first lets find the slope

sure we can use the slope formula between 2 points but I just did rise over run since this is an easy graph

Rise 5 and go Left 1 so the slope is -5/1 or -5 (negative due to the run going left instead of right plus the line is negative since its falling from left to right)

The y intercept is 8 becuase its the first point where the line crosses the Y axis

ANd thats it!

Plug it in

y= -5x+8

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
