Question

  1. a line has an \\(x\\)-intercept of 2 and a \\(y\\)-intercept of \\(-5\\). graph the line.

Explanation:

Identify the coordinates of the intercepts

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Determine the equation of the line

$$ LATEXBLOCK1 $$

Plot the points and draw the line

$$ \text{Plot } (2, 0) \text{ and } (0, -5) \text{ on the coordinate plane and draw a straight line through them.} $$

Answer:

To graph the line, plot the points corresponding to the intercepts and draw a straight line through them:

  • \(x\)-intercept of 2: Plot the point \((2, 0)\) on the \(x\)-axis.
  • \(y\)-intercept of \(-5\): Plot the point \((0, -5)\) on the \(y\)-axis.
