Questions: y 8 6 4 2 x -6 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 -2 -4 -6 -8

Solution Steps

The slope of a line is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise over run). From the graph, we can see that the line passes through the points (-5, 1) and (5, 5).

Using the points (-5, 1) and (5, 5): \[ \text{slope} = \frac{5 - 1}{5 - (-5)} = \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5} \]

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. From the graph, the line crosses the y-axis at y = 3.
