In Exercises 5–20, find the equation of each of the lines with the given
properties. Sketch the graph of each line.
In Exercises 105–108, use a graphing utility to graph each linear
function. Then use the TRACE feature to trace along the
line and find the coordinates of two points. Use these points to
compute the line's slope. Check your result by using the
coefficient of x in the line's equation.
