Hi There!

First of all, we have 2 points:

(1, -2)

And

(0, -5)

In order to find the slope, we need to use the following formula:

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

Plug in the values:

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{-5-(-2)}{0-1}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{-5+2}{-1}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{-3}{-1}[/tex]

Divide:

[tex]3[/tex]

This is the slope.

Now, what about the y-intercept?

The y-intercept is the point where the graph touches the y-axis.

This is the point (0, -5)

Thus, the y-intercept is -5.

The equation is: y=3x-5

And we're done!

Hope it helps!

Have an awesome day!
