Answer 1

Let's pick two points on the line: \((-1,5)\) and \((0,3)\).

Answer 2

Now find the slope.

Answer 3

the slope is going downwards..

Answer 4

Very good, so the slope is negative :)

Answer 5

And the \(y\)-intercept is \(3\).

Answer 6

ok so i can already eliminate 2 of them

Answer 7

wait is my answer d

Answer 8

Notice that the \(y\)-intercept is \(3\) and the slope can only be \(-2\).
