Question 427238: graph by using slope and y-intercept.
2x+y=-5
Answer by algebrahouse.com(1659)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! graph by using slope and y-intercept.
2x + y = -5
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
2x + y = -5
y = -2x - 5 {got in slope-intercept form}
slope = -2 or -2/1 {rise over run}
y-intercept = -5
To graph:
- put a point on -5 on the y-axis, that is the y-intercept
- from there, go down 2 and to the right 1 and put another point,
since the slope is -2/1
- draw a line through the two points
