Hi,

Find the slope -7x-3y=2   

0r  -7x-2 = 3y  

0r y+=highlight%28-7%2F3%29x+-+2%2F3%29 

Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b   

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.  

 m = highlight%28-7%2F3%29

-7x-3y=2
y = -(7 x)/3-2/3
slope= -7/3
Ax + By = C
slope= -A/B
-(-7)/-3
7/-3
-7/3 = same slope
