Answer:

y int: (0, -23)

Explanation:

first you find the slope by taking two points and substituting it in rise over run (
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) ))

I used 25-13/-72+54 which eventually simplified to -2/3

You then use point slope form and plug in one pair of points

I used (-36,1) since it seemed the easiest

y-1=
(-2)/(3)(x+36) point slope form:
y-y_(1)=m(x-x_(1) )

y-1=
(-2)/(3) x-(72)/(3)

y-1=
(-2)/(3) x-24

y=
(-2)/(3) x-23

the number without the variable is always y int regardless of the numbers in the equation

therefore, the y int is (0,-23)
