Answer:

The Standard Form of the equation of a line is: Ax+By=C

Converting that, once and forevermore, into slope-intercept form, and remembering the result,

the slope m=(-A/B).

If the given slope is 8, the equation of the line is 8x-y=C and we a point to determine C. Use (2,10)

8(2)-10=C

6 = C

The equation of the line, in Standard Form, is: 8x - y = 6
