Answer:

-36

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function has a constant slope.

This means no matter the points you use to calculate the slope that the slope will always remain the same.

[tex]\frac{f(-3)-f(3)}{-3-3}=\frac{f(8)-f(3)}{8-3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{19-(-11)}{-6}=\frac{f(8)-(-11)}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{30}{-6}=\frac{f(8)+11}{5}[/tex]

[tex]-5=\frac{f(8)+11}{5}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 5:

[tex]-25=f(8)+11[/tex]

Subtract 11 on both sides:

[tex]-36=f(8)[/tex]
