<reasoning>

Identify points on the line

Using the Graphing Linear Equations knowledge point
\[

$$\begin{aligned} &\text{Point 1: } (0, 8)\\ &\text{Point 2: } (1, 0) \end{aligned}$$

\]

Calculate the slope

Using the Slope of a Line knowledge point
\[

$$\begin{aligned} m &= \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\\ m &= \frac{0 - 8}{1 - 0}\\ m &= -8 \end{aligned}$$

\]
