How to: Graph a line

Graphing a line

To graph a line, put a point at the

y intercept

and then use the slope to find more points.

y=2x-5

First point at -5
because that is the
y-intercept

y=2x-5

First point at -5
because that is the
y-intercept

Next point here:
2 up and 1 over
from the SLOPE

y=2x-5

First point at -5
because that is the
y-intercept

Next point here:
do it again:
2 up and 1 over
from the SLOPE

Now you try!
