Use the distributive property
y - 7 = 5x - 60
add 7
y=5x-53
5x is your slope
y - 7 = 5x - 60
add 7
y=5x-53
5x is your slope
To find the slope we have to get it into slope intercept form.
To do this, first distribute the 5.
Now the equation is:
y-7=5x-60
Then add 7 to both sides to get y by itself.
So now the equation is y=5x-53
y=mx+b
m is the slope.
That means 5 is the slope.
Hope this helps!
