Respuesta :

y + 2 = 1/5(x - 1)
y + 2 = 1/5x - 1/5
y = 1/5x - 1/5 - 2
y = 1/5x - 1/5 - 10/5
y = 1/5x - 11/5

slope = 1/5
y int = (0,-11/5)....for graphing purposes, -11/5 = - 2 1/5
x int = (11,0)

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]y+2=1/5(x-1)[/tex] -----> linear equation in point slope form

we know that

the line passes through the point [tex](1,-2)[/tex]

the slope is equal to [tex]m=1/5[/tex]

To plot the line find the intercepts

Find the y-intercept ----> (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

[tex]y+2=1/5(0-1)[/tex]

[tex]y=-11/5=-2.2[/tex]

The y-intercept is the point [tex](0,-2.2)[/tex]

Find the x-intercept ----> (value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)

[tex]0+2=1/5(x-1)[/tex]

[tex]x=11[/tex]

The x-intercept is the point [tex](11,0)[/tex]

Plot the intercepts to graph the linear equation

see the attached figure
