Answer

$m=5; b=-3 $

Work Step by Step

This equation is in the form y=mx+b. In order to figure out what the slope is, we must figure out what x is being multiplied by. x is being multiplied by 5, so we know that m, the slope, is 5. We now must figure out what is being added to x. -3 is being added to x, so we know that b, the y intercept, is -3.
