Answer:

y = 5/11 is y-intercept. slope = -2/11

Explanation:

2x + 11y - 5= 0

add 5 to both sides and subtract 2x from both sides

11y = 5 - 2x

to find y-intercept: make x = 0 (because all along the y-axis, x will be 0).

11y = 5 - 2(0)

= 5

divide by 11

y = 5/11. this is y-intercept.

to find slope (gradient):

11y = 5 - 2x

divide by 11

y = 5/11 - (2/11) x

slope = -2/11
