Answer:

slope = -2 , y intercept = 2

Explanation:

A graph of straight line is given to us and we need to find out the slope and the y intercept of the line.

Here we can see that the line cuts the y axis at (0,2) . Hence the y intercept of the line is 2 .

$\longrightarrow$ y intercept = 2

Again , we can see that the line cuts x axis at (1,0). So we can find the slope(m) of the line as ,

$\longrightarrow\sf m= (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)$

$\longrightarrow$ m = (0-2)/(1-0)

$\longrightarrow$ m = -2/1

$\longrightarrow$ m = -2
