You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=2x+7 (red line)
y=2x (green line
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+y+=+2x+%2B7%2C+y+=+2x%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, of TWO functions y = 2x +7 and y = 2x).
It would appear from the 2 graphs that the line is moved up the y axix 7 places. Thus answer C) is correct.
