Question 1107277
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept


5x = 2y + 7
2y = 5x - 7   {subtracted 7 from each side}
y = (5/2)x - (7/2)   {divided each side by 2}
slope = 5/2
y-intercept = -7/2


To graph:  
- put a point on -7/2, on the y-axis, since it is the y-intercept
- from that point, move up 5 and to the right 2 and put another point down, since the slope is 5/2
- draw a line through those two points
