Question

Fill in the blank with the correct response. The slope of the graph of y = -7x is

Answer 1

m = -7

Explanation:

y = -7x is a typical slope-intercept equation of a straight line. Comparing it to

y = mx + b, we see that the slope, m, is -7 and the y-intercept, b, is 0.

Answer 2

The slope is -7

Explanation:

`y = mx + c`

The
`m` indicates the slope/gradient of a graph
