Answer:

slope is -1/4

y intercept is 11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is (3-5)/(10-2) = -2/8 = -1/4 (using the slope formula)

the y intercept we can set up an equation, y= mx + b

we already know m, which is -1/4 (the slope), and to find b, we could just plug in one of the points to get

5 = (-1/4)*2+b

solve the equation

b = 11/2
