find an equation of the line having the given slope and containing the given point. m=7/8 (3,-8)

OpenStudy (mathmale):

This situation is a perfect candidate for using the point-slope formula for the equation of a line. Are you familiar with that formula? Once you have the formula, merely substitute 7/8 for m (the slope) and the x- and y-coordinates of the given point for x0 and y0 in the point-slope formula.
