Question

what is the slope and y-intercept for the line y = -2x

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = - 2, y- intercept = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 2x , that is

y = - 2x + 0 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2 and y- intercept c = 0 ( that is the origin )

Answer 2

The answer for the slope in that question is -2
