Question

1. what is the slope from the equation $y = -3x + 7$?

a. -3
b. 7
c. -7
d. 3

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope-intercept form

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is $y = mx + b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

Step2: Match given equation to form

Compare $y = -3x + 7$ with $y = mx + b$. Here, $m = -3$.

Answer:

a. -3
