Answer:

• m=-7

,

• b=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the line:


y-7=-7x

To determine the slope and y-intercept, first, express the line in the slope-intercept form (y=mx+b).


\implies y=-7x+7

You can then compare:

• Slope, m = -7

,

• y-intercept, b =7

The slope of the line is -7 and the y-intercept is 7.
