FIND THE SLOPE
The line passes through (0,1) and (2,0)
Use formula of the slope to find the slope
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
m = (0-1)/(2-0)
m = -1/2
The slope is -1/2

FIND THE Y-INTERCEPT
The y-intercept is the value of y when the line intersects y axis. The line intersects y axis in point (0,1). The value of y is 1. So the y-intercept is 1.
