5x+13y=-13

13y=-5x-13

y=-5/13x-1

Y-intercept = -1
Slope = 5/13

The equation given in the question is
5x + 13y = -13
13y = - 5x - 13
y = (- 5/13)x - 1
From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the slope is (-5/13) and the y-intercept for the line is -1. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and the answer has actually come to your desired help.
