A line has an equation of y=−x+6 . What are the slope and y -intercept?(1 point) Responses The slope is −1, and the y-intercept is 6. The slope is negative 1 , and the y -intercept is 6. There is no slope, and the y-intercept is 6. There is no slope, and the y -intercept is 6. The slope is 6, and the y-intercept is −1. The slope is 6, and the y -intercept is negative 1 . The slope is 1, and the y-intercept is 6.

1 answer

The equation of the line is given as \( y = -x + 6 \).

In this equation:

  • The slope (m) is the coefficient of \( x \), which is \(-1\).
  • The y-intercept (b) is the constant term, which is \( 6 \).

So, the slope is \(-1\) and the y-intercept is \(6\).

Thus, the correct response is: The slope is −1, and the y-intercept is 6.
