Question

I need the answer ASAP

Answer 1

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! Welcome to brainly!

So slope intercept form - y = mx + b

where m = slope and b = y intercept

First lets find the y intercept

The y intercept is at (0,-1)

B would equal the y value of the y intercept so b = -1

now lets find the slope

To do so we can pick 2 points on the line and use the slope formula

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

the points can vary but i chose the points (5,-2) and (10,-3)

having found the points we plug them into the formula

$m = \frac{-3-(-2)}{10-5} \\-3-(-2)=-1\\10-5=5\\m=-\frac{1}{5}$

now that we have found all of the information we plug the values into the equation and get that the answer is

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