See graph
Explanation:
We can see that the equation represents a straight line. Also that
Two points are sufficient to draw a straight line.
However, it is advisable to have three points so that error, if any, while calculating two points on the lines can be cross checked.
-
For
x=0 , we obtainy=0 , so origin is a point on the line. -
For
x=5 , we obtainy=-10 , so next point is(5,-10) -
For
x=-5 , we obtainy=10 , another point is(-5, 10)
Plotting these points we get the graph
graph{2x+y=0 [-20, 20, -10, 10]}
