Given the the equation: y − 7 = x + 4 ;
We should rewrite the equation in "slope-intercept form" ; that is:
" y = mx + b " ;
______________________
in which: "y" remains an isolated variable on the "left-hand side" of the equation (with "no coefficients"—except the "implied coefficient of "1"
{since "1" , multiplied by any value, results in that same value} ;
"m" refers to the "slope" of the line;
and "m" is the coefficient of "x" ;
"b" refers to the "y-intercept" of the graphed (linear) equation; or more precisely, the value of "y" of the coordinate of the [ point on the graphed line of the equation—where the line crossed the "y-axis" ] ; that is; the "y-coordinate of the "y-intercept" ; that is, the value of "y" when "x = 0" ;
______________________________________________________
{Note that: "m" (the slope) may be a negative value; & that: "y" may be a negative value; as regard to the "slope-intercept form" equation:
that is:
"y = mx + b" . }.

So; given the equation:
______________________________________________________
" y − 7 = x + 4 " ;
______________________________________________________
Add "7" to each side of the equation;
to isolate "y" on one side of the equation;
→ {specifically, the "left-hand-side" of the equation} ;
and to rewrite the equation in "slope-intercept form" ; that is;
→ to rewrite the equation in the format:
" y = mx + b " ;
_______________________________________________________
As such: "y − 7 = x + 4 " ;
_______________________________________________________
→ Add "7" to each side of the equation:
_______________________________________________________
→ y − 7 + 7 = x + 4 + 7 ;
to get:
_______________________________________________________
→ y = x + 11 ;

Now, let us graph the equation:

Now, we plot these points on a graph, and draw a line through these points; the slope is "1" ; since the equation is:
" y = x + 11 " ; Note: The slope, "m", is "1", since there is an "implied coefficient of "1" ; i.e. " y = 1x + 11 " .
