Question

How do you graph y=5x-7

Answer 1

To find the slope and y intercept, use the y=mx+b formula where m=slope and b is the y intercept.
y=mx+b

Using the y=mx+b formula, m=-5 and b=7.
m=-5, b=7

So y=-5x+7 and the point is (0,7)

Answer 2

to draw its graph,find its x-intercept and y-intercept and connect both these points to obtain the line.
to find x intercept---->put y=0 in the equation
to find y intercept----->put x=0 in the equation
