How do you make 2x-5y equals 5 into points?

Answer 1

2x-5y=5

In order to solve this linearly(in points), you must plug in numbers into x or y, then solve the equation for the other variable.

For example: if you plug 0 into x, or into y. You will need to do this with at least two points, three two be safe.

2(0)-5y=5 2x-5(0)=5

0-5y=5 2x=5

0-5y-0=5-0 2x/2=5/2

-5y=5 x=5/2

-5y/-5=5/-5 (5/2,0)

y=-1 You then create a graph and plot the points. Next, draw a

(0,-1) connecting the two points, and...voila! you have put 2x-5y=5

into points on a line.
