Question 267986: Evaluate the logarithmic equation for three values of x that are greater than -3, three values of x that are between -4 and -3, and at x = -3. Show your work. Use the resulting ordered pairs to plot the graph; State the equation of the line asymptotic to the graph (if any).
y=-log4(x+4)

I just provided help for a very similar problem. So please Click here to view it. It will help you figure out how to find the base 4 logarithms and the asymptotic line.
P.S. x = -4 is a vertical line through -4 on the x-axis.
P.P.S. Most of the points you sent in the second message are not correct. You should be using:
y+=+-log%28%28x%2B4%29%29%2Flog%28%284%29%29
to find your coordinates.
When x =0
y+=+-log%28%280%2B4%29%29%2Flog%28%284%29%29+=+-log%28%284%29%29%2Flog%28%284%29%29+=+-1
When x = -1
y+=+-log%28%28-1%2B4%29%29%2Flog%28%284%29%29+=+-log%28%283%29%29%2Flog%28%284%29%29+=+-0.79
When x = -3.975

With the correct points and an asymptote at x = -4 the graph should look like:
graph%28400%2C+400%2C+-5%2C+5%2C+-5%2C+5%2C+-log%284%2C+x%2B4%29%29
