Answer:

see the explanation

Explanation:

step 1

Identify the equation of the given line

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to


y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have


m=5\\b=-1

substitute


y=5x-1

step 2

Identify the coordinates of four points on the line

First point

The given y-intercept

point (0,-1)

Second point

The x-intercept

For y=0


0=5x-1


x=(1)/(5)=0.20

point (0.20,0)

Third point

For x=1


y=5(1)-1=4

point (1,4)

Fourth point

For x=2


y=5(2)-1=9

point (2,9)
