A2. Model Situations Graphically and Algebraically.
In the space below, neatly draw a scatter plot graph of the equations = 2 +40
and y =32 over the domain for x-values from 0 to 10 and the range for y-values from 0
to 50. [Use a ruler! Hint: X-axis on bottom edge of space provided; Y-axis on left edge;
Why would this make a better graph?]
What is the slope value of y = -2x +40? What is the slope of y =32?
