Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

The related function we like to graph is the one that has the solutions as its zeros.

__

Subtract 5 from both sides.

  x² -9 = 0

This is now in the form ...

  f(x) = 0

The related function is then ...

  f(x) = x² -9

and its zeros are the solutions to the original equation. The zeros (x-intercepts) of f(x) are x = -3 and x = 3.

__

Additional comment

The second attachment shows a graph of the given equation. Essentially, its graph is two points on the number line: x = -3 and x = 3.
