Answer:

Slope=7.5  and y-intercept=50

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard slope intercept equation of a line is given by :

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where

[tex]m\rightarrow[/tex] Slope

[tex]b\rightarrow[/tex] y-intercept

Comparing the given equation with the standard equation:

[tex]y=7.5x+50[/tex]

We know that [tex]m=7.5[/tex] and [tex]b=50[/tex]

∴ Slope= 7.5  and y-intercept= 50
