You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = -10x + 7
THE LINE FORMULA IS MADE UP OF FOUR DIFFERENT ELEMENTS:
THE (Y) INTEGER, THE (X) INTEGER, THE SLOPE (m) & THE Y INTERCEPT (b).
Y=mX+b
YOUR EQUATION HAS A SLOPE (m)=-10
THE Y INTERCEPT (b)=7 (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, -10x +7).
