Answer:

y+8=-2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope, and (x1,y1) is a point.

We are given all of that information:

slope: -2

point: (4,-8)

substitute the numbers into the equation

y--8=-2(x-4)

we can make --8 to positive 8

so:

y+8=-2(x-4)

this is the equation in point-slope form

Hope this helps!
