y=x-1

When x=0, y = -1

When y=0, x = 1

delta y over delta x = 1/1 which means the slope is 1

Answer:

Slope is equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

(-7, -8) --> (x1, y1)

(-5, -6) --> (x2, y2)

[tex]slope \: = \frac{y2 - y1 }{x2 - x1} \\ slope \: = \frac{ - 6 -( - 8) }{ - 5 - ( - 7)} \\ slope \: = \frac{ - 6 + 8}{ - 5 + 7} \\ slope \: = \frac{2}{2} \\ slope = 1[/tex]

Therefore the slope of the line is 1
