Answer:

Slope = -5/2

Y-intercept = -9

Explanation:

Hello!

The equation is given in Slope-Intercept Form: y= mx + b

  • m = slope
  • b = y-intercept

Since the slope is the coefficient of the x-term, the slope of this equation is -5/2, or -2.5

The y-intercept is the numerical constant, which is given the by the integer -9.
