Approximate Values of x...3

Section 2.7
Question 58

See graph below.

Part (a)

For y ≤ 0, x = 2.

Part (b)

For y => 8, x = not sure what the value of x is.

 

[MathLover1]

For y => 8, x = -2

 

[nycmathguy]

For y => 8, x = -2

Where in the graph do you see x = -2 for y =>8?

 

[MathLover1]

look at x-axis from 0 to -5, each little square is 1 unit
then, look at y-axis from 0 to 10, each little square is 1 unit
so, go count 8 on y, from there go 2 units left

Ok. I see it now. Thanks. On my way home from the beach.
