SOLUTION: graph the equation and id the y intercept ; x + 2y = 10 as far as I get is subtract the x from both sides, y=(-1/2x)+5 after that I don't know what steps are next.

The easiest way to graph a line is to use the x and y intercepts since you only need two points to define a line.
To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and solve for x.

(10,0)
Plot that point.
