Slope: $4$
Intercept: $7$

To find slope and intercept of a line, you can write it in the

$y = mx+b$

form. In that case, $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the intercept. In your case, we only need to add $4x$ to both sides to get

$y = 4x+7$

so the slope is $4$ and the intercept is $7$ .

How do you find the slope and intercept of -4x+y=7-4x+y=7?
