Q:

Which steps should be used to graph the equation y – 4 = y minus 4 equals StartFraction one-third EndFraction left-parenthesis x plus 2 right-parenthesis.(x + 2)?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Step-by-step explanation:You have to graph the following equation: y – 4 = (x + 2)Lets start by summing 4 in both sides: y – 4 + 4= (x + 2) + 4y = (x + 2) + 4By commutative property we can write that:y = x + (2 + 4)y = x + 6So, our equation can be written as y = x + 6Now, for drawing the graph we need two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)As the independent term is 6 we know the function passes trough (0, 6). Now we need another point, lets try with some simple. Lets see what happens is x is equal to 1:y = 1 + 6 = 7So, the function passes trough (0, 6) and (1, 7). For graphing it we just ned to identify those points in the axis and draw a line that crosses both of them. Here I attach a graph for this.
