what is the slope-intercept equation of the line below

Answer:
A. y = -5/4x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find coordinates
(0, 3)
(4, -2)
Step 2: Find slope
m = (-2 - 3)/(4 - 0)
m = -5/4
y = -5/4x + b
Step 3: Rewrite equation (we already found y-int)
y = -5/4x + 3
Answer:
The slope is answer choice A : [tex]\frac{-5}{4}[/tex] + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
When you plot the points on the graph you see that you have one point at (0,3) and a second at (4, -2). When you see this you can remember that the equation to finding slope is:
[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
So once we know this we can easily subtract 3 from -2 and 0 from 4 to get the slope of [tex]\frac{-5}{4}[/tex]. And the y intercept of 3 is already given to us.
