I will assume that this equation describes a line that you want in standard slope intercept form:
y=mx+c
...where m is the slope and c is the intercept.
First subtract 7 from both sides of your equation, then expand and rearrange as follows:
y=2(x+5)-7
=(2×x)+(2×5)7
=2x+10-7
=2x+3
y=2x+3 is in the standard slope intercept form,
with slope m=2 and intercept c=3.
