Intensity determines to number of photoelectrons emitted and frequency determubes the kinetic energy of photoelectrons, higher frequency means more energy is given to the electrons from the photons.

Make sure you state that intensity is proportional to the number of photoelectrons when the frequency of light is above the threshold frequency and for kinetic energy of photoelectrons, below the threshold frequency, kinetic energy is 0 - no matter how intense.
