To complete the table of values for the equation $y = x + 5$, we select a range of $x$-values and compute the corresponding $y$-values. Here's the completed table for a few values:

$x$	$y = x + 5$
-3	2
-2	3
-1	4
0	5
1	6
2	7
3	8

Graphing the Equation

1. Choose a Scale: Since the values of $y$ range from 2 to 8 and $x$ from -3 to 3, a suitable scale might be 1 unit per square for both $x$ and $y$.

2. Plot Points: Using the table, plot each point (e.g., (-3, 2), (-2, 3), ..., (3, 8)) on a coordinate plane.

3. Draw the Line: Connect the points with a straight line, as the equation $y = x + 5$ represents a linear function.

4. Label the Graph: Clearly label the axes and mark the equation on the graph.
