locus of points satisfying the equation 2+x=y using a table

[coco1234]

in this problem you will explore the locus of points that satisfy an equation.

A. TABULAR represent the locus of points satisfying the equation 2+x=y using a table of at least five values.

B. GRAPHICAL represent this same locus of points using a graph.

C. VERBAL describe the geometric figure that the points suggest.

HELP please i do not know how to solve this.....

Looks like you are stuck in the beginning! So we will start with definitions:

What does TABULAR mean? How can you use that definition in this problem?

What does GRAPHICAL mean? How can you use that definition in this problem?

What are your thoughts?

Please share your work with us ...even if you know it is wrong

Do like they showed in class: Pick an x-value. Plug it into the equation. Solve for the corresponding y-value. List this pair in your table. Repeat four more times.

B. GRAPHICAL represent this same locus of points using a graph.

Plot the points from your table onto the Cartesian plane. Draw the line through the points.

C. VERBAL describe the geometric figure that the points suggest.

Has your class discussed things like "slope" and "intercepts"? If so, use these terms to help in your description. If not, then just follow whatever they did in the examples in your book and in your class notes.

If you get stuck, please reply with a detailed description of your efforts so far. Thank you!
