[tex] \boxed{\mathrm{slope = - 2 }}[/tex]

and

[tex] \boxed{ \mathrm{y \: intercept =4 }}[/tex]

[tex] \large \boxed{ \mathfrak{Step\:\: By\:\:Step\:\:Explanation}}[/tex]

Let's find the slope, using the coordinates of points (2 , 0) and (0 , 4)

  • [tex] \sf{ \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1 }}[/tex]

  • [tex] \dfrac{4 - 0}{0 - 2} [/tex]

  • [tex] \sf{ \dfrac{4}{ - 2} }[/tex]

  • [tex] - 2[/tex]

The y - intercept is the value of y - coordinate of the point on the line, where x - coordinate is 0 or the y - coordinate of the point where the line cuts the y - axis ~

that is y - coordinate of point (0 , 4)
