Question

Find the slope of the line: y = -5x - 1
A
m = -5/1
B
m = -1/5

Answer 1

Answer: A) m = -5/1

Step-by-step explanation: The format of slope intercept form is y=mx+b , therefore M= -5/1.

Answer 2

Slope: -5/1

Explanation:

The slope is always the coefficient of x in y=mx+b, so m is -5 (you don't reverse it)
