In this equation, the form is y=mx+b, where b is the intercept. First, you need to choose two points on a graph. For example, (7,1) or (14,2) are both points on a graph. The general formula to find the slope is rise over run or (y2-y1) divided by (x2-x1). However, that method takes a while. If you already have the equation, which in this case you do, you don't have to do all the complicated stuff. By looking at the form of the equation, y=mx+b or y=5x+2, you can find the slope. m, or 5 is the slope in this case and b, or 2 is the intercept.
