See a solution process below:
Explanation:
First, solve for two points which solve the equation and plot these points:
First Point: For
Second Point: For
We can next graph the two points on the coordinate plane:
graph{(x^2+(y-5)^2-0.1)((x-4)^2+(y-3)^2-0.1)=0 [-20, 20, -10, 10]}
Now, we can draw a straight line through the two points to graph the line:
graph{(x^2+(y-5)^2-0.1)((x-4)^2+(y-3)^2-0.1)(y+0.5x-5)=0 [-20, 20, -10, 10]}
