Solve A = (1/2)(b1 + b2)h
Multiply both sides by 2: 2A = (b1 + b2)h
Divide both sides by b1 + b2: 2A/(b1 + b2) = h
Write y = (-2/3)x - 7 in standard form
Multiply both sides by 3: 3y = -2x - 21
Add 2x to both sides: 2x + 3y = -21
Write in slope-intercept form: 5x + 2y = -6
Subtract 5x from both sides: 2y = -5x - 6
Divide both sides by 2: y = (-5/2)x - 3
