Answer:

15/4 x-y=-24

Step-by-step explanation:

the standard form is ax+by=c

two points (x1,x2) , (y2,y1)

x1=-8       x2=-6

y1=-4        y2=9

find slope m: y2-y1/x2-x1

m=9-(-6)/-4-(-8)

m=15/4

find b: take any point(-8,-6)

y=mx+b

-6=15/4 (-8)+b

-6=-30+b

b=-6+30

b=24

y=15/4 x+24

standard form: y-15/4x=24

OR : 15/4 x-y=-24
