Explanation:

To understand how to graph basic linear equations, you'll need to understand the components of the equation. Essentially, 8x will give you the corresponding y value on the graph.

The formula for basic linear equations is y = mx + c, where m is the slope/gradient. Slope is found by rise/run or (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).

For this specific equation, this means that for every 8 units that you take up (rise), you move one step sideways to the right (run).

Since there are no additional components to this equation, the line will pass through the origin (0,0).

Hope this makes sense!
