Sketch the graph of each line on separate graph paper using the slope-intercept method! \( \begin{array}{ll}\text { 15) } y=-\frac{8}{5} x-5 & \text { 16) } y=2 x-3\end{array} \)

To sketch the line \(y = -\frac{8}{5}x - 5\), start by identifying the y-intercept, which is -5. This means you place a point at (0, -5) on the graph. The slope is -\(\frac{8}{5}\), indicating that for every 5 units you move to the right (positive x-direction), you'll move down 8 units (negative y-direction). This will help you find another point, for example, from (0, -5) to (5, -13). For the line \(y = 2x - 3\), the y-intercept is -3, so plot a point at (0, -3). The slope of 2 indicates that for every 1 unit you move to the right, you'll move up 2 units. From (0, -3), you can plot another point by going to (1, -1), and then you can continue this pattern for additional points. Once you have at least two points for each line, connect them with straight lines, and you’ll have your graphs!
