Question

First convert the equation -x+y=-5 into slope intercept form. Graph the line by plotting the y-intercept first, then another point using the given slope.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + y = -5

Transform to slope-intercept form, y = mx + b:

-x + x + y = x - 5

y = x - 5 (Slope-intercept form where m = 1, b = -5).

Plot the y-intercept (0, -5) on the graph. Using the "rise over run" of the slope, m = 1, the next point will be: (1, -4).

I also plotted other points (please see the attached screenshot of the graph).
