Converting the equation to Slope Intercept form y=-2x-7, the slope is the number that is multiplied to x, WHEN the equation is in Slope Intercept form.
The slope is -2. The y intercept is 7.
(you would have gotten these same answers without converting to Slope Intercept form, but that is not usually the case. You have to convert to Slope Intercept form.)
When a line has the form y = mx + c, m is the slope (gradient) of the line and c is the intercept with the y-axis.
Rearranging -2x - y = 7 into this form yields:
y = -2x - 7
So the slope is -2.
Slope for the equation y equals 7 is zero.
The slope is 4.4 and the y intercept is -7
7
In order to find the slope and y-intercept we must first put the equation into slope intercept formula. This formula is y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept. Taking the equation 7x+2y=10 you can figure out the slope intercept formula of y=(-7/2)x+5. Given that information the slope is -7/2 and the y-intercept is 5.
If: y = 7 then there is no slope and the line will be parallel to the x axis
