b

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

good so is -1 to the left or right of the origin?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

left?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

good, so it works like a number line, can you locate x=-1 on your graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right under 0? or 1 left to the 0?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

well, we are using the x axis, so that means we move horizontally

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

right under zero would be y=-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):
