"slope "=-1," y-intercept "=6

Explanation:

"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form" is.

•color(white)(x)y=mx+b

"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"

"rearrange "y+x=6" into this form"

"subtract " x" from both sides"

y=-x+6larrcolor(red)"in slope-intercept form"

"with slope "=-1" and y-intercept "=6
