#"slope "=2" y-intercept "=-1#

Explanation:

#"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.

#•color(white)(x)y=mx+b#

#"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"#

#"Rearrange "2x-y=1" into this form"#

#rArry=2x-1larrcolor(blue)"in slope-intercept form"#

#"slope m "=2" and y-intercept "=-1#
