What is the slope of Y= 2x-7

$\text { The slope of } y=2 x-7 \text { is } 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text { The given line is } y=2 x-7$

$\text { The given line is in the form of } y=m x+b$

$\text { That is } y=2 x+(-7)$

Where

m is slope of the equation

Slope: The slope of a line is also called as gradient of line it is denoted by a letter m.

$\text { b is the } y-\text {intercept.}$

$\text { Hence the value of slope is } m=2$

$y-\text { Intercept is } b=-7$
