Question

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the graph of the linear equation. y = −7x + 2 *

Answer 1

slope = - 7, y- intercept = 2

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

y = - 7x + 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 7 and y- intercept c = 2
