First, we will rewrite the equation so it's easier to graph.

Explanation:

Let's solve for y:

56-8y=0
-8y=-56
y=7

What does this equation mean? It means that we have a horizontal at the y-value of 7! As long as each point has 7 as a y-coordinate, we can plot the points we want. Here are some to help you get started:

(0,7)
(2,7)
(4,7)
(-2,7)
(-4,7)

Hope this helped!
