Graph this line using the slope and y-intercept:
y = -1/8x + 5
Click to select points on the graph.

Answer

To graph the line y = -1/8x + 5, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the y-intercept: The y-intercept is 5, so plot the point (0, 5) on the graph.
  2. Use the slope: The slope is -1/8, which means for every 8 units you move to the right, you move 1 unit down. From the y-intercept (0, 5), move 8 units to the right to (8, 5), and then 1 unit down to (8, 4). Plot the point (8, 4).
  3. Draw the line: Connect the points (0, 5) and (8, 4) with a straight line to complete the graph.
