I need to graph this equation f(x)=x-1 The x-values are: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2

Question

anonymous · Answer

Well, at least solve it. I can graph it just fine.

anonymous · Answer

solve for what x?

anonymous · Answer

x=y+1

mertsj · Answer

The equation says that y is 1 less than x.  So if x = 4, y = 3, if x = 5, y = 4, if x = -2, y = -3 and so on.   Get some ordered pairs, plot them and draw the line.

anonymous · Answer

It's supposed to be like this: say I'm going to do the first x-value (which is -2) so you'd put f(-2).  I'm supposed to solve using that x-value for the y to create the ordered pair.

anonymous · Answer

f(-2)=-3 you get (-2,-3)
f(-1)=-2  you get (-1, -2)
f(x) is the same thing as y

anonymous · Answer

f(0)=-1 do you see the pattern? 
(0,-1)
(1,0)
(2, 1)

Yeah, thanks!
