Answer:

Since we know the slope is the value multiplied by x , the slope is −1.

Explanation:

We can rewrite this equation as:

y=1x+0

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept value.

For this equation:

y=1x+0

Therefore:

The slope is m=1

The y-intercept is b=0 or (0,0)

I hope this helps :)
