Answer:
y = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Plug in the points:
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-8 - 0) / (-8 - 0)
-8 / -8
= 1
So, the slope is 1.
Plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b and solve for b:
y = mx + b
-8 = 1(-8) + b
-8 = -8 + b
0 = b
Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b
y = mx + b
y = 1x + 0
y = x
So, the equation of the line is y = x
