Question

How do you sketch the graph of 2x+5y=-5

Answer 1

You would need to use the formula y=mx+b
2x+5y=−5
Step 1: Add -2x to both sides.
2x+5y+−2x=−5+−2x
5y=−2x−5
Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.
5y/5=−2x−5/5
y=−2/5x−1
Answer: y=−2/5x−1
Ive attached a photo of what 2x+5y=-5 would look like in a graph.
