Question

Identify the slope and yintercept of the function y=-2x+ 1. O A. The slope is 1. The y intercept is (0,2). O B. The slope is – 2. The y intercept is (0, 1). C. The slope is 1 The y intercept is (0, -2). O D. The slope is 2. The y intercept is (0, 1). SUBMIT

Answer 1

The general equation of line with slope m and y-intercept of b is,

`y=mx+b`

Compare equation y = -2x +1 with general equation to obtain slope and y-intercept.

Slope: m = -2

Intercept: 1 or can be expressed as (0,1).

Option B is correct answer.
