Step-by-step answer:

Assuming the equation is y=-x+k,

where k is a constant, such as 5, pi, 10/7, etc.

then the slope is the coefficient of the term containing x, namely

-1  (since -x is a shorthand for (-1)*x ).

For this case we have by definition, that the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut point with the "y" axis

We have, according to the data provided, that the line is of the form:

[tex]y = -x + b[/tex]

That means that the slope is -1.

ANswer:

[tex]m = -1[/tex]
