Question 839096: I have worked different variations for my online homework and am still stuck on this problem of graphig this linear equation. May I please get some assistance on how to solve/graph this?
y=-1/5x+5
Thanks in advance for any and all replies! Answer by richard1234(7193) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Draw xy coordinate axes. Pick a few numbers (preferably integers or multiples of 5) to use for x, and find y. You will obtain several ordered pairs (x,y). The resulting graph is linear (linear = line), with slope -1/5.
A graph of the equation can be found here:
