Question

1. What statement describes the relationship between the graph of the equation y = −|x| and the graph of the equation y = −|x| − 1?
A. The graph of y = −|x| was shifted 1 unit to the right.
B. The graph of y = −|x| was shifted 1 unit down.
C. The graph of y = −|x| was shifted 1 unit to the left.
D. The graph of y = −|x| was shifted 1 unit up.

2.What is the point-slope equation of the line through the point (−5, 5) that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 5x = 3y?
A. y − 5 = 5/3(x + 5)
B. y − 5 = −3/5(x + 5)
C. y − 5 = 3/5(x + 5)
D. y − 5 = −5/3(x + 5)

Answer 1

The first one is B because its subtracting one
The second one is B because it would be the opposite reciprocal of 5/3 (-3/5)
