Answer: Explanation:As a minimum determine 2 points and draw a straight line through them. Extending the line to the borders of the graph paper. 3 points are better as it they should all line up. If not then something has been calculated incorrectly.Set x=0 giving:y=12(0)+5So the first point is P1→(x1,y1)=(0,5)............................................................................Set y=0 giving:0=12x+5Subtract 5 from both sides−5=12xMultiply both sides by 2−10=xSo the second point is P2→(x2,y2)=(−10,0)
