Question

Find the slope and y-intercept from the equation.y = -2x + 1 Slope = m = Y-intercept =

Answer 1

Given the equation:

$y=-2x+1$

The given equation represents the equation of a line written in a slope-intercept form which is similar to the general form: y = m * x + b

where: (m) is the slope and (b) is the y-intercept

So, comparing the given equation to the general form

So, the answer will be:

Slope = m = -2

Y-intercept = 1
