To bake one cake, Drew uses 18 ounces of flour. He has 850 ounces of flour. Let y represent the ounces of flour left and x represent the number of cakes he has baked. When the situation is modeled on a graph, what are the slope and the y-intercept of the line representing this situation? slope = 850 and y-intercept = 18 slope = 18 and y-intercept = 850 slope = - 18 and y-intercept = 850 slope = 850 and y-intercept = - 18

Y = 850-18x

since you start with 850 ounces that will be your y intercept

each time you go down 18 ounces so the slope is - 18
