Question

What type of line is the graph of 4x + y = -3? 
A.) vertical
B.)horizontal
C.)rising
D.)falling

anonymous · Answer

usually x is input, and y is the resulting height.

we can re-arrange by subtracting 4x from both sides:
y = -4x -3

anonymous · Answer

slope is negative so you can judge.
slope=tan of the angle made with X-axis.

anonymous · Answer

so what time of graph would it be?

anonymous · Answer

for every run of ONE x to the right, the height DECREASES 4 y
f(x) = -4x
f(1) = -4
f(2) = -8
f(3) = -12
