Answer:
Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is −2 - 2 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
\text{Solve for y:}
Solve for y:
Put into slope-intercept form
2x-y=
2x−y=
\,\,7
7
-2x\color{transparent}{-y}\phantom{=}
−2x−y=
\,\,-2x
−2x
Bring x's to the right
-y=
−y=
\,\,-2x+7
−2x+7
\frac{-y}{-1}=
−1
−y
=
\,\,\frac{-2x+7}{-1}
−1
−2x+7
Divide by -1
y=
y=
\,\,2x-7
2x−7
