#y=-4x+4#

Explanation:

  1. Use point slope equation: #(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)#
    #(-8-4)/(3-0)=-12/3=-4#
  2. #f(0)=4# They give you the y-intercept in this problem.
  3. Apply to slope equation: #y=mx+b#
  4. Linear function: #y=-4x+4#
    Note: To check your work, graph the linear equation and see if the points match at #(0,4)# and #(3,-8)#.
