Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of this line, you have to subtract that first y coordinate from the second y coordinate, and divide that by the quantity equal to the second x coordinate minus the first.

-2 - -2.5 = 0.5

4 - 2 = 2

0.5/2 = 1/4

Now you plug in the info you already have into a y=mx+b format. Chose one of the pairs of coordinates given in instruction to be the x and y values.

-2 = 1/4(4) + b

-2 = 1 + b

-3 = b

-3 is the y-intercept.
