Answer & Step-by-step Explanation

We're given the following equation to work with.


-\!\!\!-\!\!\!-\!\!\!\! > \qquad\boldsymbol{\sf{y=-\cfrac{7}{6}x+1}}

We need to find the slope and the y-intercept.

The slope is the number in front of x, and the y-intercept is the constant term.

Therefore,


\bf{Answers=\begin{cases}\sf{Slope: -7/6}\\\sf{y-intercept:1}\end{cases}}

Note: This way of finding the slope only works for slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept is
\sf{y=mx+b} where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Answer:

slope = -
(7)/(6) , y- intercept = 1

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

given the line with equation

y = -
(7)/(6) x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = -
(7)/(6) and y- intercept c = 1
