Answer:

Explanation:

What we know:

m = 4, b = -5

y = mx + b where m is the gradient/slope and b is the y-intercept

Substitute m and b values:

y = 4x + -5 which is the same as y = 4x - 5

Substitute all x values to find y coordinate:

When x = -7, y = (4 x -7) - 5 = -33

When x = -6, y = (4 x -6) - 5 = -29

When x = -5, y = …

Continue for all x values
