QUESTION:
y=- x-2 -2
There are brackets in front of the x and behind the -2. So how would I graph the equation.
ANSWER:

HOPE YOUR QUESTION IS LIKE THIS,

y = -( x - 2 ) - 2
Open the brackets,
==> y = -x +2 -2
==> y = -x

Now give arbitrary values to x and find out corresponding values of y,

when x= 0 , y = 0
when x= 1 , y = -1

when x= 2 , y = -2

when x= 3 , y = -3

when x= 4 , y = -4


when x= 5 , y = -5



Now plot the graph using these lines.

Then it will come like this,







That is the resultant graph is a straight line which passes through the origin.
