Find the Slope y-x=-8

$y - x = - 8$

Step 1

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Add $x$ to both sides of the equation.

$y = - 8 + x$

Reorder $- 8$ and $x$ .

$y = x - 8$

Step 2

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is $1$ .

$m = 1$
