Question

Graph the equation y = 1/2x + 5 on the coordinate plans provided below.

Answer 1

Answer:

Well, of course, i can not graph it in the coordinate plane in the image, but i can try to teach you how to do it.

We have the function y = (1/2)*x + 5

The first step is to generate pairs (x, y)

You can do it by evaluating the function in different values of x.

For example;

if x = 0

y = (1/2)*0 + 5 = 5

then we have the point (0,5)

if x = 2

y = (1/2)*2 + 5 = 6

Then we have the point (1, 6)

Now, with only two points you can graph the line.

First find the points in the coordinate plane, and mark them.

Now, with a ruler, draw a line that connects the two points.

That line is the graph of the function.

An example of the graph is:
