Graph the line with the equation y=5x-1

y-intercept: (0,-1)

x-intercept: (1,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x − 1

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

The slope-intercept form is  y = mx + b , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y = mx + b

Find the values of m and b using the form  y = mx + b

m = 5

b = −1

The slope of the line is the value of m, and the y-intercept is the value of b. Slope: 5

y-intercept: (0, −1)

Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values.

Find the x-intercept.

To find the x-intercept(s), substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.

0 = 5x − 1

x = 1/5

x-intercept(s) in point form.

x-intercept(s): ((1/5),0)

Find the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept(s), substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.

y = 5 (0) − 1

y = −1

y-intercept(s) in point form.

y-intercept(s): (0, −1)

Create a table of the x and y values.

x | y

0 | -1

(1/5) |  0

Graph the line using the slope and the y-intercept, or the points.

Slope: 5

y-intercept: (0, −1)

x | y

0 | -1
