Question to Find the Slope of given Straight line Equation

Here is a Linear Programming problem on Slope and y intercept of a Straight line, Straight line equation is a linear equation in two variables.
Slope is a the ratio of the altitude change to the horizontal distance between any two points on the line.
y-intercept is the y-value of the point where the graph of the function or a relation intercepts the y-axis of the rectangular coordinate system (x = 0)

Topic : Slope and y-intercept of a Straight Line

This the simple and direct question to find slope and y intercept.

Problem : Given straight line is x + y - 7 = 0, find the slope and y-intercept of the straight line.
Solution :
Slope is always denoted by 'm'
and Slope = - Co-efficient of x / Co-efficient of y
So from the given straight line x + y - 7 = 0
=> - 1/1 = - 1
Slope = - 1

Now to find y-intercept
put x = 0 in the given straight line linear equation,
So x + y -7 = 0
y - 7 = 0
=> y = 7
=> y-intercept is (0,7)
