Answer:

Correct rate of change is -5; correct initial value is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is the coefficient of the x term, which here is -5.  So Bryan has the rate of change wrong.

The initial value of the function is found by letting x  =  0.  Here, we get

y = -5(0) + 3, or y = b = 3.  The initial value is 3, not -5.
