Question

Type the correct answer in each box.

Answer 1

Answer:

-1x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the factor of x is the slope of the line in the form of y/x.

it simply says how many units y changes for a given change of x.

in our diagram we can see that when x changes one unit to the right (positive), y changes 1 unit down (negative).

so, the slope or factor of x = -1/1 = -1

and when x=0, y=-1.

so, the constant offset in the line equation is -1 too.

so, it is

y = -x - 1

or as explicit factor for x

y = -1×x - 1
