Slope = 5/2
y intercept = -1
======================================================
Work Shown:
m = 5/2 = slope
(x1,y1) = (-2,-6) = point the line goes through
y-y1 = m(x-x1) .... point slope form
y-(-6) = (5/2)(x-(-2))
y+6 = (5/2)(x+2)
y+6 = (5/2)x + (5/2)*2
y+6 = (5/2)x + 5
y = (5/2)x + 5 - 6
y = (5/2)x - 1
This equation is in slope intercept form y = mx+b
m = 5/2 = slope
b = -1 = y intercept
