Answer:

1.)

slope: -10

y-intercept: 60

equation:
y=-10x+60

2.)

slope:
-(1)/(2)

y-intercept: 0 (the line passes through the origin)

equation:
y=-(1)/(2) x

Step-by-step explanation:

To find your slope you can use the equation
(y_(2)-y_1 )/(x_2-x_1), plugging in the designated numbers from two ordered pairs you select from the chart.

Your y-intercept is the value found at y whenever x is equal to 0.

For your equation, you simply place your slope in front of x and add on your y-intercept.

Answer:

1) Slope; -10

Y-intercept; (0,60)

Equation; y=−10x+60

2) Slope;-1/2

Y-intercept; (0,0)

Equation; y=−1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula and slope-intercept form y=mx+b to find the equation.
