Question:


Find the slope and the y-intercept.
y = –9x – 5


Answer:

The standard slope intercept form of a line is,

y = mx + c, where 'm' is the slope and 'c' is the intercept.


The given equations is y = –9x – 5


Comparing this equation with the standard equation, you can see that,

m = -9 and c = -5

That is slope = -9 and intercept is -5.


Hope you found the explanation useful.
