Answer:

slope: -1

y-intercept: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept is when x is 0 so it's 8 and the slope can be found using the slope formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(6-8)/(0 - (-2)) = -2/2 = -1

Just take it in co-ordinate pairs

(x,y)=(Arm span,Height)

Take two points

(58,60)
(41,40)

Slope:-

$\\ \sf\longmapsto m=\dfrac{40-60}{41-58}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto m=\dfrac{-20}{-17}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto m=\dfrac{20}{17}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto m\approx 1.2$

Equation of line in point slope form

$\\ \sf\longmapsto y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto y-60=1.2(x-58)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto y-60=1.2x-69.6$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1.2x-y-9.6=0$

Convert to slope intercept form y=mx+b

$\\ \sf\longmapsto y=1.2x-9.6$
