The equation of the line given in the question is


y=x-5

Step 1: Calculate the coordinate of the x-intercept

To calculate the x-intercept, we will put the value of y=0


\begin{gathered} y=x-5 \\ 0=x-5 \\ x=5 \end{gathered}

The coordinate of the x-intercept is


(5,0)

Step 2: Calculate the coordinate of the y-intercept

To calculate the coordinate of the y-intercept, we will put the value of x =0


\begin{gathered} y=x-5 \\ y=0-5 \\ y=-5 \end{gathered}

The coordinate of the y-intercept is


(0,-5)

By graphing the coordinate we will have the graph to be
