The slope is zero and the y-intercept is $\frac{5}{2}$ $5/2$ . The graph is a straight horizontal line.

Explanation:

$2 y = 5$ $2y=5$

Divide both sides by $2$ $2$ .

$y = \frac{5}{2}$ $y=5/2$

Slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ $y=mx+b$ , where $m$ $m$ is the slope and $b$ $b$ is the slope intercept. The slope of the line $y = \frac{5}{2}$ $y=5/2$ is $0$ $0$ . The equation is $y = 0 x + \frac{5}{2}$ $y=0x+5/2$ , and the y-intercept is $\frac{5}{2}$ $5/2$ , which is $2 \frac{1}{2}$ $2 1/2$ .
