What is the slope & y-intercept of the line that passes
through the points: (-2,7) & (6,-3) ? *

a. Slope: 5/4; y-intercept: 4.5
b. slope: -4/5; y-intercept: 4.375
c. slope: -1.25; y-intercept: 4.5
d. slope -5/4; y-intercept: -4.5
e. None of these

C.) slope: -1.25; y-intercept: 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.25 is the same as 5/4, which is the rise/run for this equation in particular.

The following equation can be used to find the Y-intercept for this graph:

Therefore, our y-intercept for this line is positive 4.5 and the slope is -1.25 or -5/4

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.
