y=2x - 9
Answer by Alan3354(69443)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It's a straight line, so you need 2 points.
Pick 2 values of x and find y.
Any 2 points will do.
--------
x = 0, y = -9 --> (0,-9)
x = 5, y = 1 --> (5,1)
Plot the 2 points, draw a line thru them
--------------
The y-int is at x = 0 --> -9
