Answer:

Explanation:

First, lets put this into y=mx+b form.

You can bring the 13x over to the 14, by subtracting and you get -2y=14-13x, or also -2y = -13x + 14

Then you can divide both sides by -2 to get y, and you get

-2y/-2 = -13x/-2 + 14/-2 which is simplified to y=13/2x + (-7) which is

y=13/2x-7

{[( IMPORTANT )]}

THIS HAS THE SLOPE IN A IMPROPER FRACTION... CHECK IF YOU USE MIXED NUMBERS OR IMPROPER FRACTIONS

the mixed number form is y = 7 1/2 x -7

Hope this helps!
