Sagot :

Answer:

Slope: [tex]\frac{7}{5}[/tex]

Y-intercept: -5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation of the line is not given but is graphed we can do in this way:

First, it's very simple to find the y-intercept: is -5 as you can see (the line touch the points -5 in the y line).

You know that the slope can be find by having two points (now we have the A(0; -5) (the y-intercept point).

As you can see, the line touch also the B(5; 2) perfectly.

Now we simply use this formula for find the slope:

[tex]s=\frac{yB-yA}{xB-xA}[/tex]

Let's substitute the value:

[tex]slope=\frac{2+5}{0+5}[/tex]

[tex]slope = \frac{7}{5}[/tex]

Answer:

Slope: 7/5

Y-intercept: -5
