Kerry is skateboarding down a hill. The top of the hill is 4 feet above street level, and after traveling 3 yards, her height is 2ft. Let y represent her height above street level, in feet, and x represent Kerry’s height, in slope intercept form.

y=-3/2x+4

The slope is -3/2, since Kerry traveled three feet and only went down 2.

The y intercept is 4, since she started four feet above the origin
