y=−5x−1

y equals negative 5 x minus 1
y=5x+1
y equals 5 x plus 1
y=−5x+1
y equals negative 5 x plus 1
−5x−y=−1

Answer 1

To write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form, we use the format \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.

Based on the options you've provided, the equation that matches this format is:

\( y = -5x + 1 \)

So the correct response is:

y = -5x + 1 (y equals negative 5 x plus 1)
