y=5/7x+1/7y=57x+17

Explanation:

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

•color(white)(x)y=mx+bxy=mx+b

"add "5x" to both sides"add 5x to both sides

cancel(-5x)cancel(+5x)+7y=5x+1

rArr7y=5x+1

"divide all terms by 7"

y=5/7x+1/7larrcolor(red)"in slope-intercept form"
