really??

OpenStudy (hippoharry):

what?

satellite73 (satellite73):

question goes in the "bad math" file we can still do it, but the answer will not be right, it will be what your bad math teacher wants you to say

OpenStudy (hippoharry):

that makes no sense

satellite73 (satellite73):

start with \[x=\sqrt{y+2}\] and solve for \(y\) in two steps 1) square both sides, get \[x^2=y+2\] then subtract \(2\) get \[y=x^2-2\]

satellite73 (satellite73):

they want you to pick the graph of \(y=x^2-2\) which is pictured, but it is a huge mistake

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Why full graphs

satellite73 (satellite73):

because they have no business teaching math, clearly no matter, pick the graph of \(y=x^2-2\) do you know which one that is?

OpenStudy (hippoharry):

no i dont

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Yeah this is pretty bad, in any case maybe try plotting a \[y=x^2 \] graph by making a tables of values to get the picture

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

And then once you figure that out, the -2 is y=x^2 but starts down vertically by 2 units

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Or you can make a table of values with y =x^2-2 either way should work haha

satellite73 (satellite73):

or pick the parabola that opens up and has a vertex of \((0,-2)\)
