Question

Graph the line with the equation y = 1/6 x +5.

Answer 1

We have a equation of the line y = 1/6*x+5.

We need at least two points to graph the line.

The y-intercept is y(0)=5, so the point (0,5) is part of the line.

We can find another point using a value of x as an input and calculating y.

For example, we can calculate y for x=6:

`y(6)=(1)/(6)\cdot6+5=1+5=6`

Then, we know that the point (x,y)=(6,6) belongs to the line.

With these two points we can draw the line as:
