graph{y = 6/5x + 5 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

To solve the problem, you need to know the formula for slope. It is "y = mx + b". M stands for slope and B represents the y-intercept. So our y-intercept is 5 which makes the point (5,0). We will plot the first point there. Our slope is 6/5 and since slope is "rise over run" we will go up (or down if you want to plot it backwards) 6. Then if we moved up, we will plot the point 5 to the right. If we moved down, we will plot 5 to the left of that. Repeat this as many times as needed and then draw a line to connect the points!

undefined To graph the equation y = (6/5)x + 5 using slope-intercept form, follow these steps:

1. Start by identifying the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0. In this equation, the y-intercept is 5.

2. Plot the y-intercept on the graph at the point (0, 5).

3. Determine the slope, which is the coefficient of x in the equation. In this case, the slope is 6/5.

4. Using the slope, identify another point on the line. To do this, move vertically up 6 units and horizontally to the right 5 units from the y-intercept point (0, 5). This will give you another point on the line.

5. Plot the second point on the graph.

6. Draw a straight line passing through both plotted points. This line represents the graph of the equation y = (6/5)x + 5.
