Slope:
![\green{{3}}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/high-school/8a43e4wi5jq86pck9pzu6lbfcs8x3ds58q.png)
y-intercept:
![\green{{0, -6}}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/high-school/q2pqf3po6hmf43hh9i2yt5mvri5u2mvbde.png)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form is
where
is the slope and
is the y-intercept
![\green{{y = mx + b}}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/high-school/y1gjy7l3egozz72zjbl670f35aahiv4e41.png)
Find the values of
and
using the form:

The slope of the line is the value of
, and the y-intercept is the value of
