The equation is .

           (Write the equation in the form of y = mx + b)

Compare the equation with slope-intercept form y = mx + b.where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

slope(m) = 1 and y-intercept is(b) = 5.

y-intercept is 5, so the line crosses the y-axis at (0, 5)

Using slope find the next point.

Slope(m) = = .

\
• Plot the point (0, 5)
\
• Start at point (0, 5),since the rise is 1. Move 1 unit down.
\
• The run is 1. Move 1 unit left then plot the point (, 4)
\
• Draw a line through these points.
