Answered by GPT 3.5
The equation y = -2x - 8 represents a linear equation in slope-intercept form. The coefficient of x (-2) represents the slope of the line, indicating that for every increase of 1 in x, y decreases by 2 units. The constant term -8 represents the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x is 0. Therefore, the line crosses the y-axis at the point (0, -8).
Answered by GPT 3.5
The slope of the equation y = -2x - 8 is -2.
Answered by GPT 3.5
The line represented by the equation y = -2x - 8 is falling from left to right. This is because the slope (-2) is negative, indicating a downward or decreasing trend as x increases.
