PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!
Annie is helping you graph the line y-3=2(x+1).

She tells you to follow the steps below.


Step 1: Plot the point (1, -3).

Step 2: Plot more points by moving up 2 and right 1.

Step 3.: Draw a line through the points and put arrows on the ends.


Annie made a mistake. What was her mistake? How should she fix her mistake?

Respuesta :

We will see that Annie's mistake is that the point (1, -3) does not belong to the line, the first point should be (1, 7).

How to graph the line?

Here we have the line:

y - 3 = 2*(x + 1)

First, Annie tells you to plot the point (1,-3), this would mean that when x = 1, y must be equal to -3.

But if you evaluate the function in x = 1, you get:

y - 3 = 2*(1 + 1)

y - 3 = 2*2 = 4

y = 4 + 3 = 7

So when x = 1, we have that y = 7

From this, we can conclude that the point (1, -3) does not belong to the line, so it should not be graphed.

This is the mistake that Annie did, the first point should be (1, 7).
