Math Problem Statement

m=1 and b=-7

Solution

It looks like you've provided values for mm (slope) and bb (y-intercept), which are likely for the equation of a straight line in slope-intercept form:

y=mx+by = mx + b

Given that m=1m = 1 and b=7b = -7, the equation of the line becomes:

y=x7y = x - 7

This equation represents a straight line with a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of -7.

Would you like more details or have any questions?

Here are 5 related questions to consider:

  1. How do you graph the line y=x7y = x - 7?
  2. What is the significance of the slope and y-intercept in this equation?
  3. How do you find the x-intercept of the line y=x7y = x - 7?
  4. How would the graph change if the slope mm were different?
  5. How do you solve for xx when y=0y = 0 in the equation y=x7y = x - 7?

Tip: To graph a line, you can start by plotting the y-intercept and then use the slope to find other points on the line.
