Draw a cartesian plane, create a graph with the equation x = y^2 - 2
then substitute numbers into the equation so that it is true, to find points on the graph, e.g. substitute y with 1, you get
x = 1^2 - 2
x = 1 - 2 = -1, so when y = 1, x = -1, this point is (-1, 1)
for the next substitute y with 2,
x = 2^2 - 2
x = 4 - 2 = 2, the point is (2, 2)
you might want to try negative values of y
y = -1, x = (-1)^2 - 2
x = -1 the point is (-1,-1)
then plot the points on the graph
Answer:
<em>Tick:</em>
<em>- the coefficient of the second term is -5</em>
<em>- the coefficient of the fourth term is -10</em>
Explanation:
The coefficient of an expression is simply the number placed before and multiplying the variable (e.g. 10x ; the coefficient is 10, the variable is x)
Hope this makes sense. Feel free to inquire further if need be!

First, we must find the common denominator (12) ✵
10/12-6/12 ✵ ✵ ✵ ✵
Now, why 10? ✵ ✵ ✵
Because we CAN'T just take the denominator and change it; we must change both the denominator AND the numerator:
✵ • - ○
4/12 ✧ ✩ ✶ ✺ ✱
We can simplify, or reduce, this fraction: ✱ ✱
1/3 ✩ ✦ ✤
I hope it helps!
