how can I graph -10x = 5y ?

Question

equations with two variables

Answer 1

Set the equation in standard line format (slope, intercept format):

 

Y = mX + b

 

m is slope

b is y-intercept

 

Since there is no constant shown, the constant is zero --> Y-intercept is zero

 

Then use the slope to plot another point (slope = rise/run =  change in Y divided by change in X)

Connect the dots and extend the line

Answer 2

first divide everything by 5
y= -2x

now to graph, start at zero then go down two over 1... then repeat ;)
