use a graphing calculator like this one https://www.desmos.com/calculator to graph each equation

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

one row/line per equation

@jim_thompson5910 so it's D?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

is it being reflected over the vertical axis? or horizontal?

anonymous · Answer

it's vertical, it's being reflected over y-axis i just want to make sure i did it right though

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

you made an error somewhere

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

you typed x^4 for the first one right?

and -x^4 for the second one right?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

you should have 2 different color graphs

anonymous · Answer

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

yes correct

jim_thompson5910 · Answer
