Answer :
Answer:
m = -1
y intercept = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation of the line is ,
[tex]\implies y = -x -6[/tex]
We know that the Standard equation of Slope Intercept Form of the line is,
[tex]\implies y = mx + c[/tex]
Where ,
- m is slope
- c is y intercept .
On comparing to the Standard form of the line we get ,
[tex]\implies Slope = -1 [/tex]
[tex]\implies y - intercept= -6 [/tex]
Answer:
Slope: -1
Solution:
- This equation is written in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b).
- In this formula, "m" stands for the line's slope and "b" stands for the y-intercept of the line.
- Also, please notice that the slope of the line is the coefficient of x (the number next to x)
- If we don't have a number next to x, then the coefficient is equal to 1.
- If we have a minus sign next to x, then the coefficient is equal to -1.
- Therefore, the slope of the line is -1.
- Now, the y-intercept is a constant that's subtracted from/added to the slope.
- Therefore, the y-intercept of the line is -6.
