slope: -65 y-int: (0,1000) remember y=mx + b m=slope so whichever number is by x thats the slope and b= y-int

so what you have is this:
y = -65x + 1000

this is a form of
y = mx + b,
where
m is the slope and
b is the y-intercept of the linear relationship.

so, -65 is
m and 1000 is the
b

It should be a piece of cake from there :D
