"slope "=2" y-intercept "=-1slope =2 y-intercept =1

Explanation:

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

•color(white)(x)y=mx+bxy=mx+b

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

"Rearrange "2x-y=1" into this form"Rearrange 2xy=1 into this form

rArry=2x-1larrcolor(blue)"in slope-intercept form"y=2x1in slope-intercept form

"slope m "=2" and y-intercept "=-1slope m =2 and y-intercept =1
