Part 1: Correct — plot the y‑intercept first.
The equation is y = (4/5)x − 5.
- y‑intercept: (0, −5). Plot that point.
- Slope: 4/5 (rise 4, run 5). From (0, −5) go right 5 and up 4 to get (5, −1). You can also go right another 5 and up 4 to (10, 3).
Part 2: Draw the line through those points. (Optional checks: x‑intercept at x = 25/4 = 6.25, point (6.25, 0); plugging x = 10 gives y = 3.)
