Answer:

Explanation:

m = slope

b = y intercept

First, you need to put this equation into slope-intercept form.

y = mx + b

To do this you need to get y alone by subtracting 2x from both sides.

2x - y =1

-2x -2x

y = 1 - 2x

Switch the numbers so it makes the equation y = mx + b

y = 2x - 1

So, the slope is 2.
