Question

Graph y=5+3x I need help graphing this problem on a graph.

Answer 1

Given the equation:

`y=5\text{ +3x}`

To graph the equation, we first solve for y, for various values of x.

Thus,

`\begin{gathered} when\text{ x = 0, we have} \\ y=5+3(0) \\ \Rightarrow y=5 \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} when\text{ x = -3, we have} \\ y=5+3(-3) \\ \Rightarrow y=-4 \end{gathered}`

By plotting the above x and y values as points (x, y) on a cartesian graph,

we have the graph to be:
