There is a slope of #1# and the y-intercept is #8#.

Explanation:

The equation you have is in slope-intercept form, where

#y=mx+b#

Here, #m# indicates the slope of the line, and #b# indicates the y-intercept.

Since #m# is the coefficient of #x#, your equation will have a slope of #1#.

You can also clearly see that the y-intercept is #8#
