Answer 2

try it yrslf.

Answer 3

When x = 0 , y = 8. So put a point at (0,8).

Now from there, the slope is 7 up and 5 to the right.

So starting at the point (0,8) go 7 up and 5 to the right and put a new point.

Then connect the dots with a ruler. :)

Answer 4

how does x = 0?

Answer 5

The whole idea of a linear equation y = blah times x + some other number is "input a value of x , output a value of y".

I can choose x to be whatever I want. So I chose 0 because it is an incredibly easy number to work with. :)

Answer 6

oohhhh i see...
