If you mean: y = x and y = x+2 then the lines are then parallel to each

y = 0.5x + 1 x = -2, y = 0 x = -1, y = 0.5 x = 0, y = 1 x = 1, y = 1.5 x = 2, y = 2 Plot the points in the coordinate system, and draw the line, which is the line of the given equation.
if INVERSELY proportional then y = 1/X^2 ( that is, 1 divided by x squared) If X doubles then X SQUARED increases as 2 x 2 = 4 times SINCE Y = 1/x^2 then Y DECREASES 4 times
How about y = (x - 2)2 = x2 - 4x + 4 ? That is the equation of a parabola whose axis of symmetry is the vertical line, x = 2. Its vertex is located at the point (2, 0).
The equation "x plus 2y equals 5" is: x + 2y = 5 2y = 5 - x y = 5/2 - 1/2x y = -1/2x + 5/2
In general, if a line passes through the points (a, b) and (c, d), its equation can be written as:y - b = [(d - b)/(a - c)](x - a)In this case, however, the formula is not necessary -- and in fact, attempting to apply it in its current form would result in a division by zero error. Instead, however, we can simply note that from (-2, 9) to (-2, 7) the x-coordinate does not change. This can only be the case if the line is vertical, meaning that the x-coordinate never changes. The line can therefore be represented by the equation x = -2.
