I'll tell you what you need to do and then YOU can show YOUR work.

is the slope-intercept form. Replace

with the given slope and replace

with the

-coordinate of the given

-intercept point.

Once you have written your equation, select a value for

. Given the value for the slope, I would choose a multiple of 5. Substitute this value for

and do the arithmetic to determine the value of

that results. Form the ordered pair

using the value you chose and the value that resulted from your calculation. Plot that point.

Repeat the process with a different value of

. Again, choosing a multiple of 5 will simplify your arithmetic. Repeat the above process.

Once you have two points plotted, sketch a straight line through them.
