The equation y = -2x - 8 is written in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.
From the given equation:
Slope (m) = -2
Y-intercept (b) = -8
This means that the graph of this equation is a straight line with a slope of -2 and it intersects the y-axis at the point (0, -8).
