Question

How do you graph `y = x - 2` by plotting points?

Answer 1

See answer below

Explanation:

Given: `y = x - 2`

The `x` is the independent variable. This means we can select any `x` value and calculate the corresponding `y` value.

`ul(" "x " "|" "y" ")`
`" " -2" "| -2-2 = -4`
`" "0 " "|" " 0 - 2 = -2`
`" "3" "|" "3-2 = 1`
`" " 6" "| " "6-2 = 4`

graph{x-2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
