Answer

\begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} \text{Slope-Intercept Form: } y=\dfrac{3x}{2}+\dfrac{7}{2} \\\text{Slope: } \dfrac{3}{2} \\\text{$y$-intercept: } \left(0, \dfrac{7}{2}\right) \end{array}

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of equality, the given equation, $ -3x+2y=7 ,$ is equivalent to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} 2y=3x+7 \\\\ \dfrac{2y}{2}=\dfrac{3x+7}{2} \\\\ y=\dfrac{3x}{2}+\dfrac{7}{2} .\end{array} Using $y=mx+b$ (where $m$ is the slope and $(0, b)$ is the $y$-intercept) or the Slope-Intercept Form of linear equations, then the equation above has the following properties \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} \text{Slope-Intercept Form: } y=\dfrac{3x}{2}+\dfrac{7}{2} \\\text{Slope: } \dfrac{3}{2} \\\text{$y$-intercept: } \left(0, \dfrac{7}{2}\right) .\end{array}
