Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are told that the slope is 2 that means that the equation cannot be A.

The slope is the number in front of the x. So far what you know is that

y = 2x + b

b is found from the given point.

  • x = - 8
  • y = 7
  • 7 = 2*(-8) + b                 Expand the right side
  • 7 = - 16 + b                    Add 16 to  both sides
  • 7+16 = -16 + 16 + b        
  • 23 = b

answer y = 2x + 23

The answer is D
