Question

graph y=-5|x|

Answer 1

Okay, one moment!

Answer 2

appreciate it! @TomatoTsundere

Answer 3

Okay, sorry for the wait

So, X will equal 0, so if So, y = -5 x 0, you get 0

Answer 4

so how would i graph this? @TomatoTsundere

Answer 5

So, your points would be 0, 0
BUT, doing it with 1, you would get a much better result

-5 times 1 is -5, so your coordinates are now 1,-5

Answer 6

I made you a graph

Answer 7

I know its hard, but dont overthink coordinates, they are super easy if you dont!

Answer 8

As Tomato showed, just plug in some points. Should look like this

Answer 9

so basically I would put my first point at -5,0 and then from there Id plot 2 rays as you showed in the link? @agent0smith

Answer 10

You need to plot at least three. (0, 0) and two others, say (1, -5) and (-1, -5)

Answer 11

I know its hard, but dont overthink coordinates, they are super easy if you dont!
