The equation is initially given in slope-intercept form.

Multiplicative Inverse of 5;
Multiplicative Inverse of 7;
Additive Inverse of the term of X;
Do any simplifications;
DONE.... You should now have the equation transformed into its equivalent in standard form.

DOING THE STEPS BOTH PLAINLY AND EFFICIENTLY:




------ using multiplication of both sides by 1
