Rearrange.
y = 5 - 2 x x - 2 = - 2 ( x - 2 ) + 1 x - 2 = - 2 + 1 x - 2

This means that x=2 and y=−2 are horizontal and vertical asymptotes.

Subbing x=0 to find the y-intercept, we have - 2 + 1 0 - 2 = - 5 2 so ( 0 , - 5 2 )

Subbing y=0 to find the x-intercept, we have 0 = 5 - 2 x x - 2
x = 5 2 so ( 5 2 , 0 )

Plot your intercepts and draw your asymptotes and you should have a general idea of how your graph looks.
