Answer:

slope: -3

y-int: -4

Explanation:

find the slope by taking any 2 points and finding the difference of their y-values over the difference of their x-values:

(1,-7) and (0,-4)

slope = -7-(-4) / 1-0

slope = -3/1

the y-intercept is the y-value that is associated with an x-value of zero; in this case, -4
