Solution:
Given the graph:
Using two points on the line to find the slope, m:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (0,-1),(5,-2) \\ \\ x_1=0,y_1=-1,x_2=5,y_2=-2 \\ \\ m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{-2-(-1)}{5-0} \\ \\ m=-\frac{1}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Thus, the y-intercept and slope, m of the line respectively are:
[tex][/tex]
