Please graph this problem for me,, thank you y= -6x - 5

Slope = -12.000/2.000 = -6.000

 x-intercept = -5/6 = -0.83333

 y-intercept = -5/1 = -5.00000

Step-by-step explanation:  

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  y+6x+5  = 0 and calculate its properties

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is -5/1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y=-5.00000

 y-intercept = -5/1  = -5.00000

When y = 0 the value of x is -5/6 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-0.83333

 x-intercept = -5/6  = -0.83333

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -5.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is -17.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of -17.000 - (-5.000) = -12.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

   Slope     = -12.000/2.000 = -6.000

Slope = -12.000/2.000 = -6.000

 x-intercept = -5/6 = -0.83333

 y-intercept = -5/1 = -5.00000
