coordinate of the

-intercept. Plot the point

. The slope is the coefficient on

in the slope-intercept form. The slope is the rise over the run, so in this case the rise is 8 and the run is 5. Starting at

move 5 units to the right and then move 8 units up. Plot the point at your destination:

. Draw a straight line through the two plotted points. \r
