We're doing slopes and graphing them, and I get the basics. It's the more complicated stuff I get confused on. y = mx+b 1.) y = x^2 - 1 2.) y = 5/2x - 3 3.) 2y = 4x + 8 4.) y = 2x^2 - 6 These are all graphing equations. If you could please explain how to tackle these problems and do them successfully, I'd be really happy! Thanks! </SPAN>\n" );
