5x - y = -2
5x = y - 2 (-2 is the offset of the sloping line)
So for every unit up the y-axis, the sloping line's co-ordinate is 5 units to the right on the x-axis. the slope is 1 in 5 or converting to angular dimensions, tan O = 1/5 or O = ?.
This is not right. The slope is 5 if y is plotted upwards as normal. For every increase of 1 in x, y increases by 5.
The slope is 5.

If: 2y+5x = 4 Then: y = -2.5x+2 whereas the slope is -2.5 and the y intercept is 2
The slope (m) is -2.5 -2y = 5x-12 -2y/-2 = (5x-12)/-2 y=-2.5x + 6 or more neatly: y= 6-2.5x
