Graph the linear equation

y=4/5x+5

I know how to plot the points. I just need help figuring out what numbers to plot.

just pick easy values for x. That 4/5 out front makes it likely to use multiples of 5. So

x y
-5 1
0 5
5 9
10 13

For every 5 x increases, y grows by 4. (Since the slope is 4/5)
