Solve for y to get y=7-5 ---> y=2. The equation is now in slope intercept form y=mx%2Bb since we can essentially rewrite y=2 as y=0x%2B2. Now remember that 'm' is the slope. Because m=0, this means that the slope of y%2B5=7 is 0.

well with the formula y=mx+b where m=slope and b=intercept
since there is no "x" then highlight%280%29 has to be the slope
