Assuming you want to solve for a, then
ad - 7 = y (reversing the equation to have a on left side )
add 7 to both sides to isolate the term with a
ad = y + 7 ( divide both sides by d )
a = 
We can't tell from the information you've given.
With the dots at the end, you showed that there's more
to the decimal. But you didn't say how much more.
-- If the decimal EVER ends, even after a billion places,
then it's rational.
-- If it repeats, then it's rational. That .80012569923 may repeat,
or part of it, like the 9923, may repeat, or the whole thing may be
part of some larger bunch that repeats. We don't know.
Method One
You could divide by 5 right away.
20/5 = - 3 + x
4 = - 3 + x Add 3 to both sides.
4 + 3 = x
x = 7
Method Two.
You could remove the brackets. This is slightly longer, but some questions can only be solved that way.
20 = 5(-3) + 5x
20 = -15 + 5x Add 15 to both sides
20 + 15 = 5x
35 = 5x Divide by 5
35/5 = x
7 = x
The slope of this line is m=1
