Answer:
slope:(-0.5) y-intercept:0 equation:(-0.5x)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope, you use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1
For example, I used the first 2 sets of coordinates used in the table
(-2,1)&(-1,0.5)
First Part: 0.5-1= -0.5
Second part: -1-(-2)=1
Third Part: -0.5/1=(-0.5)
Y-intercept: In order to find the y-intercept, x needs to be 0.
Y-intercept=0
Equation:
The form for the equation should be, mx+b
B=Y-intercept
M=Slope
X=variable
The slope is -0.5 and you add the x after -0.5
Since the y-intercept is 0, it doesn't have a value so putting 0 at the end would be unnecessary. Slope:-0.5x
