Question 74537
Find the slope and y-intercept.
	–2x – 7y = 35
The slope intercept form of a line is: {{{highlight(y=mx+b)}}}, where m=slope and (0,b)=y-intercept
Solve the equation for y:
-2x+2x-7y=2x+35
-7y=2x+35
-7y/-7=(-2/7)x+35/-7
y=(-2/7)x-5
Therefore the slope, m=-2/7
The y-intercept (0,b)=(0,-5)
Happy Calculating!!!!
