Answer:

slope = $\frac{1}{3}$ , y- intercept = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the slope m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{0+1}{3-0}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ → B

the y-intercept c is where the line crosses the y- axis

that is c = - 1 ← y- intercept

By using the midpoint formula and the equation of the line, the equation of the line of symmetry is x = - 2.

<h3>How to derive the equation of the axis of symmetry </h3>

In this question we know the locations of two points with the same y-value, which means that the axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis and that both points are equidistant. Thus, the axis of symmetry passes through the midpoint of the line segment whose ends are those points.
