Question

What’s the graph the line with the equation y= 1/2x+5

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given

Line is
`y=(1)/(2)x+5`

Put
`x=0\ \text{to get y}`

`\Rightarrow y=(1)/(2)* 0+5\\\Rightarrow y=5`

i.e. line passes through
`(0,5)`

Now, put
`y=0\ \text{to get x}`

`\Rightarrow 0=(1)/(2)x+5\\\Rightarrow x=-10`

i.e. line passes through
`(-10,0)`

Join these two points to get the line
