Answer:   The slope of the line is 1.5 and the y-intercept is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given that the equation of a straight line is as follows :

y=1.5x-2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We are to find the slope and y-intercept of the given line.

We know that

the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is given by

y=mx+c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept of the line.

From equation (i), we have

y=1.5x-2\\\\\Rightarrow y=1.5x+(-2).

Comparing the above equation with the slope-intercept form, we get

slope, m = 1.5   and   y-intercept, c = -2.

Thus, the slope of the line is 1.5 and the y-intercept is -2.

Slope: 1.5
y-intercept: -2

Explanation:
The slope is the number attached to 'x' in the equation. In this case, 1.5 would be the slope because it's attached to x.

The y-intercept is the constant the number not attached to any variables. In this case, -2 is all by itself.

Hope that helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(85+92+95+x)/4

=90

(272+x)/4

=90

90×4=360

272+x=360

x=360-272=88

so it's the lowest score
