Answer:
Explanation:
Recognize that this is a linear function. The highest power of x is 1: x^1. The slope is 2 and the y-intercept, b, is -7, or (0, -7).
First plot the y-intercept, (0, -7). Now, starting with your pencil point on this (0, -7), move the point 1 space to the right, and then 2 up. Plot a dot at this new point (which is (1, -5)).
Now connect the two points (0, -7) and (1, -5).
