This is the standard form of the equation. You have to make it into slope-intercept form to find the slope, hence the name.
7x+2y=5
7x+2y=5.
-7x. -7x. (You need to have y=)
2y=-7x+5.
/2. /2. (Divide by 2 to get only 1 y)
y=-7/2x+2.5. (Final Answer)
The slope is -7/2.

Answer:
The slope is -7/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b where m = the slope)
7x + 2y = 5
2y = -7x + 5
Divide both sides by 2:-
y = (-7/2)x + 5/2
so slope m = -7/2
