How do you graph #y=3.00x+23#?

Answer 1

Hazel Anglin

See a solution process below:

Plotting two points on a line and then drawing a line through them is the process of graphing a linear equation.

For #x = 0#

#3.00 xx 0) + 23# = #y

#y = 0 + 23#

#(0, 23)# or #y = 23#

For #x = 1#

3.00 x 1) + 23# = #y

#y = 3.00 + 23#

#(1, 26)# or #y = 26#

To graph the equation y = 3.00x + 23, plot the y-intercept at (0, 23), and use the slope to find another point. Since the slope is 3.00, for every unit increase in x, y increases by 3. So, from the y-intercept, move 1 unit to the right and 3 units up to find the next point. Connect these two points with a straight line to graph the equation.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
