Sorry, but those answers aren't correct.
I have the answer, but I can't figure out the steps to get there.
the Slope is 5. and the intercepts are (0, -1) and (1/5, 0)

Remember that g(x) is the same as y. If you replace g(x) with y you probably will recognize that the equation is in slope-intercept form.
y = 54x - 1
Therefore the slope is 54 and the y-intercept is -1. To get the x-intercept you must let y = 0 and solve for x. Try that and you should get x-intercept = 1/54
Remember this important fact. All the points on the x-axis are written (some number, 0) and that is why y = 0 when you are trying to get the x-intercept. Also, all points on the y-axis are written (0, some number). So, you can let x = 0 when you are trying to get the y-intercept.

slope= x/g(x)=54
intersects points r
(0,-1)and(1/54,0)

it's in slope intercept form (y=mx-b)
m=slope
b= y-intercept
m=54 which is the slope
b= -1 which is the y-intercept
it's in your book...look it up lazy bones
