You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Plot the points? or plot the lines?
It's most likely lines because if it said plot the points, it would give you an x value with the y value in the same question
Basically, when it saids y=-2 it means y remains as -2 no matter the x value. Even if if was (400,-2)
Then it's a horizontal line
graph%28300%2C200%2C-5%2C5%2C-5%2C5%2C0x-2%29
Now x=4 is a different story.
It isn't a function, but it has the same principles as y=-2
Basically, no matter the y value, X always remains 4
So, it's a vertical line crossing the X-axis as (4,0).
Hope this helps!
