The slope-intercept form of a line is y = mx+b where m is the slope and (0,b) is the y-intercept.

Explanation:

To write given line, -7x+y=-2, in slope-intercept form, add 7x to both sides:

y = 7x-2

To start graphing, plot the y - intercept point (0,-2)

Use the slope, m = 7, and starting at the point (0,-2), move to the right 1 and up 7 to arrive at the point #(1,5); plot that point.

Use a straight edge to draw a line through the two points and beyond.
