Question

How do you find the slope and intercept of `f(x) = -7x -2`?

Answer 1

`m = -7 and c= -2`

Explanation:

`f(x) = y`, so this is the equation of a straight line in standard form `y = mx +c`

IN this form, `m` represents the slope and `c` gives the y-intercept.

Therefore we can read the answers directly from the given equation.

In `f(x) = -7x-2, " " m = -7 and c= -2`
