Question 153871: I'm in geometry now but my teacher wants to refresh our memory in algebra 1. here is the question:
"Find the coordinates of three points that lie on the graph of each equation. Graph the points and the line representing the equation. Then name the coordinates of one point not on the line."
The equation is y=x+5
How would i solve this and then graph it?
Please help me!!!!!!!

"Find the coordinates of three points that lie on the graph of each equation. Graph the points and the line representing the equation. Then name the coordinates of one point not on the line."
The equation is y=x+5
To get three points:
Let x = 0, then y = 5
Let x = 1, then y = 6
Let x = 2, then y = 7
----------------------
Now you have three points: (0,5), (1,6), (2,7)
----------------------
Plot those points and draw a line thru them.
