Answer:

Hope this helps.

Explanation:

Well y = 2x - 5 is an equation, a linear one.

Your question is mighty confusing, but I assume you may be asking to solve for x here:

y = 2x - 5

y + 5 = 2x

(y + 5)/2 = x

You also could be asking for the graph, for a clear image, go to desmos.

Hi!

y = 2x - 5 is a linear equation in slope - intercept form.

-5 is the y- intercept and 2 is the slope.
