Answer:
1) slope = 1/5
x - intercept = (10, 0)
y - intercept = (0,-2)
2) use the method I used for number one to do number 2.
Explanation:
slope = rise/run = y2-y1/x2-x1
1)
use any 2 points on a line. Chose one y-value which is y2 and the corresponding x-coordinate is x2. In the other coordinates, the y-value is y1 and the x-value is x1. Let's use points:
(-10, -4)
(-5, -3)
y2 = -3, which means:
y1 = -4
x1 = -10
x2 = -5
plug in the values:
-3-(-4)/-5-(-10)
=1/5
X - intercept is when y = 0. Plug in 0 for y when you see it.
x-0 = 10
x=10
x-intercept = (10,0)
Same for y intercept, except x = 0 this time.
0-5y=10
-5y=10
y=-2
y-intercept = (0,-2)
