Question

i really need help. I need to find the y-intercept and the rate of change.

Answer 1

The line passes through point (-3,5) and (-2,2).

Determine the equation of line in slope intercept form.

$\begin{gathered} y-5=\frac{2-5}{-2+3}(x+3) \\ y-5=-3(x+3) \\ y=-3x-9+5 \\ =-3x-4 \end{gathered}$

The slope intercept form of equation is y = -3x - 4. So slope of line is -3 and y-intercept is -4.
