Question

Find the slope and y-intercept of the line.

y = –x + 7

slope: –7, y-intercept: 1
slope: –1, y-intercept: 7
slope: 1, y-intercept: –7
slope: 7, y-intercept: –1

Answer 1

y = mx + b

m = slope
b = y-intercept

Your equation is y = -x + 7

Answer 2

So this is the same as saying y = (-1)x + 7

Answer 3

okay

Answer 4

So what is the answer?

Answer 5

b

Answer 6

y = mx + b

m = slope
b = y-intercept

y = (-1)x + 7
m b
