graph{y = -x + 2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Explanation:

My teacher taught me that when y is alone on one side of the equation and x is on the other side of the equation. The number multiplied by x is the slope. For this question, x multiplied by negative one is negative x. So negative one is the slope of the equation. The other number that you see, in this case two, is the
y-intercept, or what the y coordinate is when x is 0.
