Hi,
2x+5y=5
Finding the y-intercept (highlight%280%29, _)
highlight%280%29+ 5y = 5
y = 1 || the y-intercept (highlight%280%29, 1)
Finding the x-intercept ( _, highlight%280%29)
2x +5·highlight%280%29 = 5
x = 5/2 || the x-intercept is (5/2 , highlight%280%29)
Plot (0,1) and (2.5,0) and connect with a Line
