For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:


y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cutoff point with the y axis

We have the following equation:


y = -10x + 1

So we have to:


m = -10\\b = 1

Answer:


m = -10\\b = 1

Answer:

The slope is
-10 and the y-intercept is
1.

Step-by-step explanation:

This function is written in slope-intercept form, which is
y=mx+b. In this form,
m is the slope and
b is the y-intercept.

In this case,
m=-10 and
b=1, so those are the answers to this problem.
