The equation is \"\".

\

\"\"            (Subtract 5 from each side)

\

\"\"                       (Apply additive inverse property: \"\")

\

\"\"                (Divide each side by 5)

\

\"\"                       (Cancel common terms)\"\"

\

First find the y-intercept.

\

The y-intercept is the value of y, when x = 0.

\

\"\"                       (Substitute x = 0 in original equation)

\

\"\"                            (Divide: \"\")

\

The y-intercept is \"\", so the graph intersects the y-axis at \"\". \"\"

\

Next find the x-intercept.

\

The x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0.

\

\"\"                       (Substitute y = 0 in original equation)

\

\"\"           (Add 1 to each side)

\

\"\"                             (Apply additive inverse property: \"\")

\

\"\"                    (Multiply each side by 5)

\

\"\"                           (Cancel common terms)

\

\"\"                               (Multiply: \"\")

\

The x-intercept is 5, so the graph intersects the x-axis at (5,0).\"\"

\

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

\

1.     Draw a coordinate plane.

\

2.     Plot the points.

\

3.     Draw a line through these points.
