The slope would be B. 1/3.
The Y Intercept would be -1.

Answer:

slope =
(1)/(3), y- intercept = - 1

Explanation:

to calculate the slope m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m =
(0+1)/(3-0) =
(1)/(3) → B

the y-intercept c is where the line crosses the y- axis

that is c = - 1 ← y- intercept
