Question

graph this line using the slope and y-intercept:

\\y = 5x - 8\\

click to select points on the graph.

Explanation:

Identify the slope and y-intercept

Using the Slope-Intercept Form knowledge point

$$
LATEXBLOCK0
$$

Determine the first point

Using the Graphing Linear Equations knowledge point

$$
LATEXBLOCK1
$$

Determine the second point

Using the Graphing Linear Equations knowledge point

$$
LATEXBLOCK2
$$

Answer:

To graph the line \(y = 5x - 8\), plot the following two points on the coordinate plane:

1. The \(y\)-intercept at \((0, -8)\).
2. A second point found using the slope \(m = 5\) (rise 5, run 1) at \((1, -3)\).
