Question

Write the equation of the line with...
slope: -1
y-intercept: (0,1)

Answer 1

y = -x + 1

Explanation:

Use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:

y = mx + b. Substitute -1 for m, 0 for x and 1 for y:

1 = -1(0) + b. Then b = 1, and this specific equation is y = -x + 1.

Answer 2

slope intercept form is y= mx+b

m is slope

b is the y value of y intercept

m = -1

y int= (0,1) or +1

so rewrite its as

y= -1x + 1 or y= -x + 1
