Answer 1

Slope is -3/7. Y intercept is 250/7.

Explanation:

Since they asking for the slope and y intercept, let put it in slope intercept form.

`y = mx + b`

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

The equation given is in standard form so we will convert it to slope intercept.

`3x + 7y = 250`

`7y = 250 - 3x`

`y = (250)/(7) - (3)/(7) x`

`y = - (3)/(7) x + (250)/(7)`

The slope is -3/7

The y intercept is 250/7
