Answer:

Slope = -1/2

Explanation:

Use y = mx + b to find the slope (m) Write the expression as an equation (-14y)-7x=0. Rewrite in slope-intercept form by removing the parentheses, adding 7x to both sides, dividing each term by -14, then writing in y = mx + b form, which is m=-1/2x. Remove the variable, it becomes your answer of -1/2.
