Answer:

(0,1.5)

Explanation:

The y-intercept is what the value of y is when x is at 0.

If you look at the graph when x is at 0, it appears to be 1.5.

Of course, this can also be calculated.

The slope formula is change in y divided by change is x.

One point that can be clearly seen is (1,3), and another is (-1,0)

(3-0)/(1-(-1)

3/2

Now you can plug it in!

(0)=-1(3/2)+b

Add 3/2 to the other side

b=3/2=1.5
