Graph the function

f(x)=3x-5

(remember slope intercept form f(x)=ax+b where a is slope, b is y-intercept) Start by plotting the y-intercept, then count the slope to the next point

Answer explanation

Graph the linear function with a y-intercept of 4 and slope of 1/2.

Plot the points from the table on the graph.

On the test, you must draw the line for full points.
