Slope Intercept form ; y=mx+b
( m=slope , b= y-intercept)
Your answer ; " y= -5/6 x - 41/6 "
They've already provided you with the slope so all you have to solve for is the y intercept ( b ) . In order to do that you just plug in the x and y values and slope value into the standard slope intercept formula . That should look something like ; -6 = -5/6 ( -1 ) + b . Once you solve that you'll get -41/6 equals b . So your final answer is y= -5/6 x - 41/6 .
