Question

Identify the slope in the following equation: y= -x + 7
PLEASE HELP!!!!

Answer 1

Answer: The slope is -1 because this equation is already in y=mx+b so we dont have to apply the y2-y1 over x2-x1 formula you can easily identify the slope when its in y=mx+b because the slope always has a x after the number for example: 4x

Answer 2

Answer:

It is the coefficient of the x, when the y is isolated. In this case it is -1.
