Answer:

y = - 8x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

Here m = - 8 , then

y = - 8x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (9, - 73 ) into the partial equation

- 73 = - 72 + c ⇒ c = - 73 + 72 = - 1

y = - 8x - 1 ← equation of line
