Answer:

y=-x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug this into the equation y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope. We know that it passes through (-8,2) so y1=2 and x1=-8. We also know that the slope is -1 so we can now fill in the equation. y-2=-1(x--8). We can change x--8 to x+8 so y-2=-1(x+8). Simplify this to get y-2=-x-8. You want to isolate y so you have to add 2 on both sides. y=-x-6. Therefore, the equation is y=-x-6.
