Question

How do you graph the equation `y=x+5`?

Answer 1

see explanation.

Explanation:

The equation of a line in `color(blue)"slope-intercept form"` is.

`color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(y=mx+b)color(white)(2/2)|)))`
where m represents the slope and b. the y-intercept.

`y=x+5" is in this form"`

`rArr(0,5)color(red)" is a point on the graph"`

To draw a line we require 2 points.

Choose any value of x to obtain a second point.

`x=3toy=3+5=8`

`rArr(3,8)color(red)" is a point on the graph"`

Plot these 2 points and draw a straight line through them and you have the graph.
