Identify the slope and y-intercept of the graph of the equation y=−4x+7

Question

.

Answer 1

The equation of the line is given in the slope-intercept form, which is \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.

In the equation \( y = -4x + 7 \):

• The slope \( m \) is \( -4 \).
• The y-intercept \( b \) is \( 7 \).

So, the slope is \(-4\) and the y-intercept is \(7\).
