Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the line

(x₁ , y₁) = (6 , 8)   & (x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 5)

[tex]Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\frac{5-8}{0-6}\\\\=\frac{-3}{-6}\\\\=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

m = 1/2  ;(x₁ , y₁) = (6 , 8)

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

[tex]y - 8 = \frac{1}{2}(x - 6)\\\\y - 8 =\frac{1}{2}x -\frac{1}{2}*6\\\\y - 8 =\frac{1}{2}x- 3\\\\y = \frac{1}{2}x - 3 + 8\\\\y = \frac{1}{2}x + 5[/tex]
