Answer 3

thats okay thanks. its better than what i got i had y=1/5x-2

Answer 4

but maybe the -1/5 is just 1/5 im not sure about it

Answer 5

you're right, im so wrong!!

Answer 6

oh, well thanks anyway for helping me :)

Answer 7

That got you another point (0,-5) now you can solve for slope using points (-2,1) and (0,-5)

Answer 8

@radar wouldnt it be (0,-2) ?
