#"see explanation"#

Explanation:

#"one way is to find the intercepts, that is where the graph"#
#"crosses the x and y axes"#

#• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"#

#• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"#

#x=0rArry=0-10=-10larrcolor(red)"y-intercept"#

#y=0rArr2x-10=0rArrx=5larrcolor(red)"x-intercept"#

#"Plot the points "(0,-10)" and "(5,0)#

#"draw a straight line through them for graph"#
