Answer:

Slope: 5

y-intercept: -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is written as '[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]', [tex](x,y)[/tex] being any point on the line, [tex]m[/tex] its slope, and [tex]b[/tex] the line's y-intercept.

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]y=5x-7[/tex]

In this equation, [tex]m=5[/tex], and [tex]b=-7[/tex].

The slope would be -7 and the y-intercept would be 5

Substitute the x for a 0

5✖️0= 0

This leaves you with

Y=0-7

Remove the 0 since you subtract

Y= -7

Slope= 5

Hope this helps! :3
