Explanations:

According to the given question, we are to plot the graph of the line y= -5(x-5)+1. To do that, we will first create coordinate points on the plane in the form of (x, y)

If y = 10, then;

10 = -5(x-5) + 1

10-1 = -5(x-5)

9 = -5(x - 5)

x- 5 = -9/5

x - 5 = -1.8

x = -1.8 + 5

x = 3.2

Hence one of the coordinates that fit is ABB(3.2, 10)

If y = 5, then;

5 = -5(x-5) + 1

5 - 1 = -5(x - 5)

4 = -5(x - 5)

x - 5 = -4/5

x - 5 = -0.8

x = -0.8 + 5

x = 4.2

Another coordinate point that fit into the plane is B(4.2, 5)

The required graph is as plotted below;
