Question

the linear equation of the line in slope-intercept form

Answer 1

Answer:

y = - $\frac{2}{5}$ + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

m = the slope

b = the y-intercept

First, we find the slope.

We pick 2 points (0,3) and (5,1)

We see the y decrease by 2 and the x increase by 5, so the slope is

m = -2/5

Y-intercept = 3

So, the equation is y = -$\frac{2}{5}$ + 3.
