"see explanation"

Explanation:

"one way is to find the intercepts and draw a "
"straight line through them"

color(blue)"to find the intercepts"

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

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

x=0to0-5y=80rArry=-16larrcolor(red)" y-intercept"

y=0to8x-0=80rArrx=10larrcolor(red)" x-intercept"

"plot these 2 points and draw a straight line through them"

graph{8/5x-16 [-40, 40, -20, 20]}
