The correct answer is A. Begin at the point (0, 5), then go down 2 units and right 1 unit to plot the next point.

To graph the equation , we can use the same approach as before:

1. Start at the y-intercept, which is the point (0, 5).

2. To determine the pattern for plotting the next point, we need to consider the slope of the line, which is . The slope represents the rise over the run, meaning that for every 1 unit increase in x, the y-value decreases by unit.

3. To maintain this slope of , we need to go down 2 units on the y-axis and right 1 unit on the x-axis. This preserves the
