Given:
The points (0,3) and (2,0) lie on the line.
Required:
We need to find the slope and y-intercept of the given line.
Explanation:
The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
The given line crosses the y-axis at 3.
y-intercept=(0,3).
Consider the slope formula,
[tex]slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex][tex]Substitu\text{te }y_2=0,y_1=3,x_2=2\text{ , and }x_1=0\text{ in the formula.}[/tex][tex]slope=\frac{0-3}{2-0}[/tex][tex]slope=\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]
Final answer:
[tex]slope=\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]
y-intercept=(0,3).
