Start by plotting the point #(0,5)# and then go up one space then over one space to plot the next point.

#(0,5)# is the y-intercept, which you plot first and #1/1# is the slope, which you use to plot the rest of the points on the graph

Refer the explanation section

Given -

#y=x+5#

Find the two intercepts.

y-intercept
At x=0; #y=0+5=5#

One point through which it passess through is

#(0, 5)#

x-intercept

At y=0; #x+5=0#

#x=-5#

Another point through which the line passess is #(-5, 0)#

Polt these two points #(0,5); (-5,0)# on a graph sheet
Join the points.
