Step 1.1

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

$y = m x + b$

Step 1.2

Step 1.2.1

Rewrite $- 1 x$ as $- x$ .

$y = - x + \frac{6}{11}$

Step 2

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Step 2.1

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = - 1$

$b = \frac{6}{11}$

Step 2.2

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $- 1$

y-intercept: $(0, \frac{6}{11})$

Slope: $- 1$

y-intercept: $(0, \frac{6}{11})$
