    Well in order to find the slope the equation should be in y = mx + b format, where m=slope

    to do this you take your equation,

    7x=-3y+15

    and notice how the x and y are in the wrong position,

    add the 3y to both sides and subtract 7x from both sides

    7x=-3y+15

    +3y + 3y

    7x+3y=15

    -7x. - 7x

    3y=-7x+15

    now we need the y to be by itself so we divide the entire equation by 3 and get

    y=-7/3x+5

    so - 7/3 or 2.33 or 2 1/3 would be the slope, the slope of parallel lines are equal
