The slope-intercept form is written as:

y = mx + b

So, we need to rewrite the given equation in this form:

x - y = 10

x - y - x = 10 - x

-y = 10 - x

(-1) * (-y) = (-1) * (10 - x)

y = -10 + x

y = x - 10

Now, we can graph the equation. In order to do so, we can plot two points that satisfy this equation and join them with a line.

Notice that, for x = 0:

y = 0 - 10 = -10

For x = 10:

y = 10 - 10 = 0

Thus, the points (0, -10) and (10, 0) satisfy the equation:
