Answer:

1. y= 1/3x-1

2. y=-2/5x+0

Step by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b

To write a given slope and intercept in slope intercept form all you have to do is plug in the information! :)

slope goes in the mx slot

and the intercept goes in the b slot

in other words....

y= slope(x)+y-intercept

Hope this helps! :)
