The conclusion about the line includes

b) The y-intercept is –4

c) The points (–2, –5) and (8, 0) are also on the line.

How to find the correct statement

slope is calculated by (change in y) / (change in x)

slope = (0 - (-3) / (8 - 2)

slope = 3/6

slope = 1/2

Find the equation of the line using point (8, 0)

y - 0 = 1/2 (x - 8)

y = 1/2 x - 4

The y intercept is when x = 0

y = 1/2 (0) - 4 = -4

Plotting the equations shows that points (–2, –5) and (8, 0) are also on the line. While points (–5, –2) and (1, 10) are Not on the line
