Answer:

Slope = -2/7; Y intercept = +2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, for this particular question - we want to convert the equation to slope intercept form! You may recognize it already, it looks like this:

y = mx + b

Here's how:

[tex]2x+7y=14\\2x+7y - 2x = -2x+14\\7y=-2x+14\\\frac{7y}{7} =\frac{-2x+14}{7} \\y = \frac{-2}{7}x+2[/tex]

The above shows this equation in slope intercept form: y = -2/7x + 2.

The slope of this line is -2/7 while the y intercept is 2!

*Note*: In the slope-intercept formula, m stands for the slope, and the b is the intercept!

Hope I was of assistance! Algebra can be a little difficult but you'll get it! Have a nice day and spread the love! <3
