Answer:

Slope= 1/6 Y-intercept= 1/3

Explanation:

1-0=1

4-(-2)=6

Slope = 1/6

y-0= 1/6 (x-(-2))

y-0= 1/6x + 1/3

Y intercept is 1/3

  • y-intercept =
    \boxed{\sf (1)/(3)}

  • slope =
    \boxed{(1)/(6)}

given coordinates: (-2,0) (4,1)


\sf slope \ formula:(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)


(1-0)/(4--2)


(1)/(6)

equation:


\sf y - 0 = (1)/(6) ( x- -2)


\sf y = (1)/(6) x + (1)/(3)

To find y-intercept, put x as 0.


\sf y = (1)/(6) x +(1)/(3)


\sf y = (1)/(6) (0) +(1)/(3)


\sf y = (1)/(3)
