Determine the intercepts of the line that corresponds to the following table of values

Question

X. Y

-7. 7

-5. 0

-3. -7

Answer 1

Well (-5,0) is the x -intercept

Next we need the slope. which apparently is -7/2

The y-intercept is then B = y - mx = 0 - (-7/2)(-5) = 0 - 35/2 = -35/2

So the y-intercept is (0,B) = (0, -35/2)

The equation of this line is y = (-7/2)X + -35/2
