You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First, solve for y
y = x - 5
...
Second, find the intercepts
as compared to y=mx+b, b is the y intercept.
In this case the y intercept is -5
Plot (0, -5)
The x intercept is where y = 0
0 = x - 5
5 = x, is the x intercept
Plot (5, 0)
...
Third, draw a line through the intercepts
