Given the equation:
y = 4x - 5
Use the slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
To plot the points, first make a point on the y-intercept, y = -5
At y-intercept, x = 0.
Thus, we have the point (0, -5)
Let's find the value of y, when x = 1.
y = 4(-1) -5
y = 4 - 5 =
y = -1
When x = 1, y = -1
We have the point (1, -1)
When x = 2
y = 4(2) - 5
y = 8 - 5
y = 3
When x = 2, y = 3
We have the point (2, 3)
Thus, mark the following points:
(0, -5)
(1, -1)
(2, 3)
Then connect the plotted points with a straight line.
We have the graph attached below:
