(1,1/7) and (5,3/2)
(1, 0.1428571) and (5, 1.5)
---
to solve the linear equation, copy and paste this (two given points):
1, 0.1428571, 5, 1.5
into the "Two-Point form: x1 y1 x2 y2" input box here: https://sooeet.com/math/linear-equation-solver.php
---
x-intercept = (0.578947508, 0)
y-intercept = (0, -0.196428625)
slope = 0.339285725
---
answer:
the slope-intercept form:
y = (0.339285725)x - 0.196428625
