Andrew Cannon · Answer 1

y = - 5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When the equation is written in slope-intercept form, as these are, then the slope is the coefficient of x. Here, the only equation that has - 5 as the coefficient of x is ...

y = - 5x + 1

Which equation shows a slope of - 5 and a y-intercept of (0,1) ?y = - 1x - 5y = - 5x + 1y = 1x - 5y = 5x + 1

Which equation shows a slope of - 5 and a y-intercept of (0,1) ?

y = - 1x - 5

y = - 5x + 1

y = 1x - 5

y = 5x + 1
