Question

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the graph of the linear equation. y= -2x - 1

Answer 1

Y=mx+ c
M=Slope or Gradient
C=Y-intercept

(M) Slope= -2
(C) Y- intercept= -1

Answer 2

slope = -2

y-intercept = -1

Explanation:

for y = -2x - 1

Using the slope intercept formula y = mx + b, then slope m = -2 and y-intercept is (0,b) or (0,-1)
