Question

Graph: y +2=

Answer 1

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is ...

  y -h = m(x -k)

for a line with slope m through point (h, k).

Comparing this to the given equation, you see that ...

  h = -2, m = 1, k = -4

The line has a slope of 1 and goes through the point (-4, -2). This information is useful for graphing.

You can also rearrange the equation to slope-intercept form by subtracting 2 from both sides.

  y = x +2

This has a slope of 1 and crosses the y-axis at y=2. It graphs the same as the above.
