The line equation is .

First find the x-intercept, let y = 0 and solve for x.

                                    (Substitute 0 for y)

                                          (Simplify)

                                     (Divide each side by 5)

                                             (Cancel common terms)

The x-intercept is 1.So plot the point x-axis at (1, 0)

To find the y-intercept, let x = 0 and solve for y.

                                 (Substitute 0 for x)

                                              (Simplify)

The y-intercept is 5.So plot the point y-axis at (0, 5)

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

\
• Draw a coordinate plane.
\
• Plot the points (1, 0) and (0, 5)
\
• Draw a line through these points.
