Identify the slope and y-intercept of this graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the first graph, we see that if x increases from 0 to 1, y decreases from 2 to 0:

m = rise / run = -2/1 = -2

Arbitrarily choose the reference point (1, 0).  

Then y = mx + b becomes 0 = -2(1) + b, where b is the y-intercept.

Then b = 2, and the desired equation is

y = -2x + 2
