Answer:

y = 2x + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

This is slope intercept form: y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

We are already given the slope, 2

y = 2x + b

Now we just need to find b, so plug in the given coordinates

2 = 2(-8) + b

2 = -16 + b

Add 16 to both sides

2 = -16 + b

+ 16  + 16

b = 18

Now place in the new b into the the equation

y = 2x + 18
