Explanation:
Start out by using the Distributive Property to convert from Point-Slope Form to Slope-Intercept Form:
y + 2 = −2x + 8
- 2 - 2
______________
[tex]\displaystyle y = -2x + 6[/tex]
Now, starting from the y-intercept of [0, 6], you do [tex]\displaystyle \frac{rise}{run}[/tex]by either moving two blocks north over one block west or two blocks south over one block east [west and south are negatives].
I am joyous to assist you anytime.
