Answer
The graph is shown below.
Work Step by Step
The given linear equation is
$\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{8}x-\frac{5}{8}$
For the vertical intercept plug $x=0$.
$\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{8}(0)-\frac{5}{8}$
Simplify.
$\Rightarrow y=-\frac{5}{8}=-0.63$
The vertical intercept is $A=(0,-0.63)$
Slope is $m=\frac{1}{8}$, so the rise is $1$ when the run is $8$.
Starting at $(0,-0.63)$ and going up $1$ and over $8$, we get to $B=(8,0.37)$.
Repeat the same to get the next point $C=(16,1.37)$.
By using theses three points draw a line.
