Hey there :)

Before translating the sentence into mathematics, let r represent 'a number'

5 times a number = 5r
2 times that number = 2r

The difference between them = 5r - 2r 

* Your equation 
5r - 2r

* Solving the equation 
= 5r - 2r
= 3r

Please plot this linear equation on a graph, and also explain how to plot it. <br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D3x-7" i
olasank [31]

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! I hope you are having a nice day.

We can solve this equation in a single step, we just need a bit of theory and a graph.

We can first see that its in y=mx+b form. Which is also known as Slope-Intercept form.

This means that we know the following.

  • b is the y coordinate of the y intercept.
  • m is the slope of the line.

Since we know that, we can see that from our equation that the slope of the line is 3 and the y intercept is (0,-7).

Now that we've gotten that, we can start graphing.

The y intercept is -7 so we can plot (0,-7) as one of our points.

The slope of 3 means that we got up 3 units then right a single unit.

Therefore, another point could be (1,-4).

With our two points, we can create our graph by creating a straight line through those two points and therefore plotting our line.

Cheers!
