ANSWER

Y-intercept: 3000

Slope:-275

Linear equation:y=-275x+3000

Step-by-step explanation

The straight line touches the y-axis at

(0,3000).

The y-intercept is b=3000

The line also passes through (2,2450).

The slope is calculated using the formula,


m = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)


= (3000 - 2450)/(0 - 2)


= (550)/( - 2) = - 275

The slope is -275.

The linear equation is given by:


y = mx + b


y = - 275x + 3000
