Answer:

-3/5

Explanation:

In order to figure out the slope of this line, we need to look at the number before x.

The function is
y=-\cfrac{3}{5}x+7.

The slope, the number before x, is -3/5.

Note: This way of finding the slope only works for slope-intercept equations (equations in the form of
y=mx+b).
