Answer 1

I think it is answer

Answer 2

Based on the graph shown above, the equation in slope-intercept form is y = -1/2(x) - 1.

In Mathematics and Geometry, the point-slope form of a straight line can be calculated by using the following mathematical equation (formula):

`y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)`

Where:

• x and y represent the data points.
• m represent the slope.

First of all, we would determine the slope of the line by using these points (-2, 0) and (0, -1);

`Slope(m)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Slope (m) = (-1 - 0)/(0 + 2)

Slope (m) = -1/2

At y-intercept (0, -1) and a slope of -1/2, an equation for this line can be calculated by using the point-slope form as follows:

y + 1 = -1/2(x - 0)

y = -1/2(x) - 0 - 1

y = -1/2(x) - 1
