Click to select points on the graph.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The equation y=5x+10 y = -5x + 10 is in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b y = mx + b .
2. The slope m m is 5-5, and the y y -intercept b b is 1010.
3. We need to graph the line by plotting points using the slope and y y -intercept.

STEP 2

1. Identify the slope and y y -intercept.
2. Plot the y y -intercept on the graph.
3. Use the slope to find another point on the line.
4. Draw the line through the points.

STEP 3

Identify the slope and y y -intercept from the equation y=5x+10 y = -5x + 10 .
- The slope m m is 5-5. - The y y -intercept b b is 1010.

STEP 4

Plot the y y -intercept on the graph.
- The y y -intercept is the point where the line crosses the y y -axis. - Plot the point (0,10)(0, 10) on the graph.

STEP 5

Use the slope to find another point on the line.
- The slope 5-5 means for every 1 unit increase in x x , y y decreases by 5 units. - From the point (0,10)(0, 10), move 1 unit to the right (increase x x by 1) and 5 units down (decrease y y by 5). - This gives the new point (1,5)(1, 5).

STEP 6

Draw the line through the points.
- Plot the second point (1,5)(1, 5) on the graph. - Draw a straight line through the points (0,10)(0, 10) and (1,5)(1, 5).
