Answer 2

Anywho, what he said^
but to help you with your question :)
You're going to want to convert this equation into slope-intercept form.

1) isolate the 'y' variable :)
2y = -5x + 8 (whatever you do to one side you MUST do to the other)

2) divide each side by two
y = (-5x + 8)/(2)
y = -5/2x + 4

So slope-intercept form gives you the 'y' intercept and the slope.
y = mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

so the slope is -5/2 and the y-intercept is (0, 4)

Answer 3

so slope is \[\frac{ rise }{ run }\]
using that, since it's -5, we want to go DOWN from (0, 4) f coordinates, and over to the LEFT 2 coordinates.

Answer 4

or, you could use a graphing calculator and graph the equation y = -5/2x + 4 but I recommend what I'm trying to do. But I'm not sure how to show you what I'm doing
