-5y=-x-15
Slope Intercept : y=-x/-5+3
-5y = x-15
(-5y)/-5 = (x)/-5 - (15)/-5
y = -x/5 - -3
y = -x/5 + 3
{this can also be written -1/5(x) + 3}

To find the slope and y-intercept using the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), you need to rearrange the given equation in that form. Let's start with the equation -5y = -x - 15.
Step 1: Isolate y on one side of the equation by dividing both sides by -5:
-5y / -5 = (-x - 15) / -5
y = (1/5)x + 3
Now we have the equation in slope-intercept form, where the slope (m) is 1/5, and the y-intercept (b) is 3.
