find the difference from (1,4) and (0,8)
1 -1 =0
4+4=8
to get from (1,4) to (0,8) go down one (-1) and up four (+4)
slope = (-1,4)
(0,8) represents a point on the line, and specifically the y intercept.
the y value of the y intercept is 8, so let’s put together the full equation:
formula: y=mx+b
m=slope and b= y intercept
y=-1/4x+8
hope this helps! let me know if you have questions
