Answer:

the graph is attached

Explanation:

This sort of equation makes it easy to find the x- and y-intercepts. Setting x to zero gives ...

y = -11 . . . . . the y-intercept

Setting y to zero gives ...

x = -11 . . . . . the x-intercept

You can plot these two points, then draw a line through them to complete the graph.

Every point on this line is a solution to the equation.
