Answer:

First Choice: slope: -3/2 y-intercept: 2

Explanation:

Take two plotted points, ex: (0, 2) and (2, -1)

Use slope formula: y2- y1 / x2 - x1

(0, 2) - (x1, y1)

(2, -1) - (x2, y2)

-1 - 2 / 2 - 0 = -3 / 2 (slope)

Now for the y-intercept, the line passes through the number "2" on the y-intercept. Therefore, the y-intercept must be "2".

If this was in slope-intercept form, it would look like; y = -3/2x + 2.

The answer to your question is the first choice. Hope this helps!
