is this y=mx+b / ax+by+c=0 stuff?

lofty talon
#

these things

elder hawk
#

translate?

lofty talon
#

in 1st it says sketch the graph of the function and find its slope and y-intercept

elder hawk
#

you know how to sketch a graph?

lofty talon
#

yeah but i dont really know what's this x and y

elder hawk
#

x is the horizontal axis, y is the vertical axis

#

for each part of the question, its saying that for each x coordinate, the y coordinate is the result of putting the x value into that equation

#

so if you take part a

#

f(x)=-3x-3

#

when x is 1, y is -3(1)-3

# rich lava go copy from desmos

As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.

so for the first qution

#

do kwon what is a function

lofty talon
#

i just dont know what to do with that f(x) -3x-3

#

i know that i have to draw something

#

so m is the gradient which is rise/run

#

so the numerator for rise is -3 and run is 1

#

means u go down three times and go right once

#

bc -3 is negative so u go down

#

so y intercept is -3

#

graph that point

#

and then from that point go down 3 times and go right once

#

then connect those points together x

#

connect all those points and then ur done uve sketched the graph

#

Just graph the y intercept and then do the gradient from there
