Best Answer

y=(1/4)x represents a slope-intercept equation. You graph it by inserting a value for x, like 8, and then solving the equation to see what y equals. In this instance, you can see that if x=8, then y=(1/4)*(8) and therefore, y=2. So, you graph x=8 and y=2 for a single point. To get a second point, insert another x value, like 4, and that will lead to another y value; 1. The 2 points here are (8,2) and (4,1); to get the line, simply draw a line that goes through both the points.

How does graph of y equals x square-1 different from the graph of y equals x square plus 7?

They're exactly the same shape and size, but every point on the graph of the first one is 8 units directly below the corresponding point on the graph of the second one.

Yes.


How do you graph x equals a number?

If x equals a constant number, the graph will be a vertical line. For example, the graph of x = 5 would be a vertical line that goes through the point (5,0). x equals 5 on every point along this lines.

What is the transformation of the graph of y equals x2 to obtain the graph of y equals -x2 plus 3?

First, reflect the graph of y = x² in the x-axis (line y = 0) to obtain the graph of y = -x²; then second, shift it 3 units up to obtain the graph of y = -x² + 3.
