Answer:
Slope is -5 and y-intercept is 90.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the two values that you circles (4, 70) and (6, 60) .
slope (m) = the change in y-value/ (the change in the x-values).
m = (70 - 60)/(4 - 6) = 10/-2 = -5
The y-intercept is the value of "b" in the equation y = mx + b.
Using y = mx + b, substitute the value m and use point of your points (4, 70).
y = mx + b
70 = -5(4) + b Now solve for "b".
70 = -20 + b
+20 = +20
90 = b
