Question
Draw the graph for the equation, given below :$5x + y + 5 = 0$

Answer

$5x + y + 5 = 0$
$\Rightarrow y = - 5x - 5$
When $x = 0;$
$y = - 5 x - 5$
$= - 0 - 5$
$= - 5$
When $x = - 1;$
$y = - 5 \times (- 1) - 5$
$= 5 - 5$
$= 0$
When $x = - 2;$
$y = - 5 \times (- 2) - 5$
$= 10 - 5$
$= 5$
$X$ $0$ $- 1$ $- 2$
$Y$ $- 5$ $0$ $5$
Plotting these points we get the required graph as shown below:
