I'm just starting to learn how to play guitar and I was attempting to play Miracle Drug but there was something in the tab I didn't understand.

e |---------------------------7---|
B |---------10--------------------|
G |-(7)-7-------9----7/9-7--------|
D |-------------------------------|
A |-------------------------------|
E |-------------------------------|

What am I suppose to do for the parentheses and the 7/9 If anyone can help me out, I'd appreciate it.
 
parentheses usually means harmonics, but i don't think Edge plays any. the 7/9 means you hold down the string and slide from the 7th fret to the 9th while keeping it ringing
