Answer:


Explanation:

2.5x+8y=200

We want to get this in slope intercept form so we will solve for y

Subtract 2.5x from each side

2.5x-2.5x+8y=-2.5x +200

8y = -2.5x +200

Now divide by 8 on both sides

8y/8 = -2.5x/8 + 200/8

y = -.3125x +25

The y intercept is 25, so plot a point there

-.3125 = -5/16

Go down 5 and to the right 16 and plot a point. Connect the two points to make a line.
