Answer:

B. y= -4x + 28

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of this line first put it into slope-point form, [tex]y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1})[/tex] where [tex]y_{1}[/tex] and [tex]x_{1}[/tex] are the y and x coordinates and m is the slope. So plug in the information to get the equation, y-8=-4(x-5). Then solve for y,

First, distribute the -4

y-8=-4x+20

Next, add 8 to both sides

y=-4x+28
The correct answer would be B) -4x+28
