A functional relation between the two variables which is expressed as $y = 50-x$, will have _______ slope.

Downward

The correct answer is Option (1) → Downward

The given equation is:

y=50−x

Here, the coefficient of x is –1, which means the slope is negative. A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, showing a downward-sloping relationship between the two variables.
