Answer:

The slope is -2 and y intercept is 1

Explanation:

The slope is found by finding the run, or change in x coordinates from coordinate 1 to 2, which is 2 in this problem, and the rise, or change in y coordinates from coordinate 1 to 2, which is -4 in this problem. To find the y-intercept, you need to find the point on the line that has a x coordinate of 0, which is (0,1) on this line, which means the y-intercept is the y value of the coordinate, or 1.
