$slope = - 5$ $"slope "=-5$

Explanation:

$the equation of a line in slope-intercept form$ $"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"$ is.

$∙ x y = m x + b$ $•color(white)(x)y=mx+b$

$where m is the slope and b the y-intercept$ $"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"$

$y = - 5 x + 3 is in this form$ $y=-5x+3" is in this form"$

$with slope m = - 5$ $"with slope m "=-5$
