Any line of the form y = mx+c is a straight line which
has a slope m and it makes an intercept of C on y axis.
The
given line , y= 5x+c has a slope 5 and it intercepts y axis at 4 units anbove the
origin.
Slope 5 means the line is inclined x degrees and
tanx = 5.
Also we can get the y intercept by putting x =0
in y = 5x+4: y = 5*0+4 =4. Or (0,4) is a point on y
=5x+4.
To get a point other than (0,4) 0n y = 5x+4. Let the
x coordinate be 1, the y = 5*1+4 = 9. So (1,9) is a point other than
(0,b)
Let y = 0, then fron y=5x+4 becomes, 0= 5x+4 , or x =
-4/5. So, (4/5,0) is another point on the line. And 4/5 is the X intercept of the line
on X axis.
