How would I graph y = 5/3x + 2?

Question

callisto · Answer

From the equation, you see y-int =2
So you'll get a point at (0,2)
Then put y= 0 into the equation and solve x
So, you'll get another point
After that, draw a coordinate plane with marked scale
Plot the 2 points you got
Draw a line joining the 2 points
You'll get the graph you want!

so like this callisto? 
|dw:1333637602078:dw| would I go even farther out to the four would I go back to -2 or go forward to 2?

Hmm.. obviously not, the graph should have a positive slope but yours has a negative one...

y = 5/3x + 2
Put y=0 into the equation
0 = (5/3)x +2
-2 = (5/3) x
x = -6/5
