you will use the slope-intercept form to find the equation of the line...
form is... y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept...
you know m = 2/3 and y-intercept = -8
equation will be... y = (2/3)x - 8

Tip: usual slope-intercept equation is: y = mx+b :m is the slope; b is the y intercept and (x,y0 is a factor on that line. if m is (+) helpful which ability the line y=f(x) is increasing( or increasing). if m is (-) negetive which ability the line y=f(x) is falling ( or reducing.) (stream is taken from Left to good). Given: m = 8 and b = 8, so, y = 8x+8 or y-8x-8 = 0 <= answer when you consider that m is (+) helpful which ability the line y=f(x) is increasing. stream taken from aleft to good.

In y = mx +b form where m is your slope and b is your y intercept,
y = 2/3x - 8
In standard form ax + by = c,
y = 2/3x - 8
-2/3x + y = 8
-2x + 3y = 24 is the standard form.

Slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b
Slope:m
y-intercept:b
m=2/3
b=-8
y=2/3x-8

y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
y=(2x/3)-8

*Just place the slope and y-int in the slope-intercept formula:
y = mx+b
y = 2x/3 - 8

y = mx+a
y = 2/3 x + 8
3y - x = 24

m = 2/3
b = -8
y = mx + b
-> y = (2/3)x - 8
