To graph the equation ( x = 5 - y ), you can rearrange it to solve for ( y ) in terms of ( x ). The resulting equation will be ( y = 5 - x ). This equation represents a linear relationship between ( x ) and ( y ). To graph it, plot several points for different values of ( x ), and then connect these points with a straight line. Alternatively, you can recognize that the equation is in slope-intercept form ( y = mx + b ), where ( m ) is the slope and ( b ) is the y-intercept. In this case, the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is 5. So, you can start by plotting the point (0, 5) as the y-intercept, and then use the slope to find additional points and draw the line.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
