Question

Y=-1/5 x -3 please help me

Answer 1

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

We have the following equation:

$y = - \frac {1} {5} x-3$

So we have to:

The slope is:$m = - \frac {1} {5}$

The cut-off point with the y axis is:$b = -3$

Answer:

The slope is: $m =- \frac {1} {5}$

The cut-off point with the y axis is: $b = -3$
