i) The equations are
Write the equations in slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
\The equation is 5x - 8y + 1 = 0
\-8y = -1 - 5x
\y = - 5x/-8 - 1/-8
\y = 5x/8 + 1/8
\Compare the equation with slope-intercept form y = mx + b.
\slope = 5/8 and y-intercept is 1/8.
\y-intercept is 1, so the line crosses the y-axis at (0, 1/8)
\Using slope find the next point.
\Slope = rise/run = 5/8
\Start at point (0, 1/8), move 5 units up and 8 units right, then plot the point (2, -4).
\Draw a line through these points.
