Step 1. Given Information

In the given exercises we have to graph by plotting points.

$3 x + 5 y = 5$

Step 2. Find three points that are solutions to the equation.First, let x=0

$3 x + 5 y = 5 3 \times 0 + 5 y = 5 5 y = 5$

Solve for y.

$5 y = 5 \frac{5}{5} y = \frac{5}{5} y = 1$

Step 3. Now let y=0

$3 x + 5 y = 5 3 x + 5 \times 0 = 5 3 x = 5$

Solve for x.

$\frac{3}{3} x = \frac{5}{3} x = \frac{5}{3}$

Step 4. We need a third point. Remember, we can choose any value for x or y.We'll let x=1

$3 x + 5 y = 5 3 \times 1 + 5 y = 5 3 + 5 y = 5$

Subtract by 3 on both side

$3 + 5 y - 3 = 5 - 3 5 y = 2$

Solve for y.

$\frac{5}{5} y = \frac{2}{5} y = \frac{2}{5}$
