Explanation:

To graph a straight line, you need two points, then connect them.

Your first point is given: (-2, 4)

To get the next point, use the slope.

The slope 2/5 is written rise / run.

Rise is the number of units going up, or down if it's a negative number.

Run is the number of units rightwards.

Take the first point (-2, 4), and add the rise to the y-value. Add the run to the x-value.

x = -2, run = 5

New x = 3

y = 4, rise = 2

New y = 6

New point: (3, 6)

Plot the two points on the grid, then connect the dots.

Remember to put arrows at both ends of your graph.
