graph by using slope and y-intercept.
2x + y = -5

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept

2x + y = -5
y = -2x - 5 {got in slope-intercept form}
slope = -2 or -2/1 {rise over run}
y-intercept = -5

To graph:
- put a point on -5 on the y-axis, that is the y-intercept
- from there, go down 2 and to the right 1 and put another point,
since the slope is -2/1
- draw a line through the two points
