Exercise 1 Page 171

Equations in slope-intercept form follow a specific format, where m represents the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

y= mx+ b The given equation is already in this form. Below we have highlighted the slope m and y-intercept b. y= 1x - 1 ⇔ y= 1x+( -1) We can see that the slope is 1 and the y-intercept is -1.
