Answer:


y = \boxed{7}x + \boxed{-17}

Explanation:

The original equation is

-7x + y = -17

To solve for y in terms of x, add 7x to both sides which is what the diagram is showing

-7x + y + 7x = -17 + 7x

-7x and +7x on the left side cancel giving

y = -17 + 7x

which can be re-written using the given boxes as


y = \boxed{7}x + \boxed{-17}
