    y = 8 - x^2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    "Decreased by ... " means whatever follows is subtracted from whatever came before. "Is" means "equals." So, the square of the x-value (x^2) is subtracted from 8:

    y = 8 - x^2

    y = 8-x²

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We have given a statement.

    The y-value is eight decreased by the square of the x-value.

    We have to write it in algebraic form.

    square of the x-value = x²

    Decreased shows subtraction and denoted by negative sign (-).

    Hence, the statement can be written in the form of

    y = 8-x² which is the answer.
