Explanation:

given a slope and a point that the line passes through you have 2 options

Option 1: Solve for the equation of the line so you can just use that to graph the line. In this scenario it would be y=(-5/2)x - (20/13)

Option 2: plot the given point and, based on the slope, plot the next point that it crosses. In this case the next point would be (5, 7). Then you can just draw a line using these 2 points.
