Answer:
The slope should be -2
You should go down 2 and go over 1.
Slope Intercept Form: y= -2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to identify the slope: (meaning whether it is a postive or negative.)
In this case, You have a negative slope.
This means instead of rising you're decreasing down.
When you "run" or move horizontally you MUST move right even if it's a negative slope.
Now, you need to identify your Y-Intercept.
Your Y-Intercept should be (0,3)
Next, you have to find your slope:
In order to find your slope, you need to find where the line is crossing the coordinate.
Start at (-1,5) and go down and over to (0,3)
Your answer should be that you went down 2 and over 1.
The slope can't be 2 because if it were to be 2, then that would be a positive slope which isn't our occasion.
The slope is -2.
In Slope Intercept Form: y= -2x+3
