Question

$5x+y=0$

• A. The line passes through $(0,0)$ and $m=-5$
• B. The line passes through $(0,0)$ and $m=-3$
• C. The line passes through $(0,0)$ and $m=3$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A The line passes through $(0,0)$ and $m=-5$

To draw the graph for the given linear equation, we need to first plot
the points which lie on it, join them to get a straight line.
Given, equation is $5x+y=0=>y=-5x$
Substitute different values of x in the equation and calculate to get corresponding values of y.

$x$	$y=-5x$	Point $(x,y)$
$0$	$0$	$(0,0)$
$1$	$-5$	$(1,-5)$
$2$	$-10$	$(2,-10)$
$-1$	$5$	$(-1,5)$
$-2$	$10$	$(-2,10)$

Plot these points on the graph paper and join them using a straight line.
