Mika earns $395 per week which she spends entirely at the grocery store, purchasing either food or alcohol. The price of food is $1/unit, while the price of alcohol is $5/unit. If Mika receives an additional $71/week in food stamps that can only be used to buy food at the grocery store (so, this money could be used to buy food but NOT alcohol), what is the slope of Mika's budget constraint at the point where the constraint intersects the vertical axis, were she to graph quantity of food on the horizontal axis and quantity of alcohol on the vertical axis? (Note: The numbers may change between questions, so read carefully
