Answer:
Slope is -6 and a known point is (0,-41.8)
Explanation:
y - (1/5) = -6(x+7)
Let's rewrite this in slope intercept format of y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0).
y - (1/5) = -6(x+7)
y - (1/5) = -6x-42
y = -6x-42+ (1/5)
y = -6x-42+ (0.2)
y = -6x - 41.8
This equation has a slope of -6 and a y-intercept of -41.8.
Slope is -6
The y-intercept is a known point (0,-41.8)
