Hello, hope you are having a splendid day. :)

Before finding the slope, we have to make sure that our equation is in slope-intercept form.

If you do not know what it is, I will tell you.

It looks like so:

y=mx+b

Where

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

For this line, 7 is the slope and -9 is the y-intercept.

Hope it helps. Ask me if you have any queries.
