This is a good tip: always, always, always... solve for y first!  So in our equation of <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=5x%2By=-10 ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"5x%2By=-10\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" > to solve for y, let's subtract 5x from both sides:  <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=y=-5x-10 ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"y=-5x-10\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >.  Now you can substitute some values of x to determine your ordered pairs.  Using x=0, gives us an ordered pair of (0,-10).  Using x=-2, gives us an ordered pair of (-2,0).  Just plot these two points and connect with a straight line to get our graph!  It looks like this:<BR>\n" );
