Question

graph the line whose y-intercept is -9 and whose x-intercept is 5.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify Intercepts

The y - intercept is - 9, so the point is \((0, - 9)\). The x - intercept is 5, so the point is \((5,0)\).

Step2: Plot Points

On the coordinate grid, find the point \((0, - 9)\) (on the y - axis, 9 units down from the origin) and the point \((5,0)\) (on the x - axis, 5 units to the right of the origin).

Step3: Draw Line

Use a straight - edge (the pencil tool in the given interface) to draw a line connecting the two points \((0, - 9)\) and \((5,0)\). Extend the line slightly beyond the points to represent the line in its entirety.

Answer:

The line is drawn by connecting the points \((0, - 9)\) and \((5,0)\) on the coordinate grid. (In the context of the given graphing interface, use the pencil to plot these two points and draw the line between them.)
