6.08 Transformations of y=x

Interactive practice questions

The lines $y=x+2$y=x+2 (black line) and $y=x$y=x (grey line) have been graphed on the same set of axes.

Loading Graph...

Two lines are graphed on the Cartesian coordinate plane. The graph of line $y=x+2$y=x+2 is in black and passes through points $0,2$0,2 and $-2,0$2,0. The graph of line $y=x$y=x is in grey and passes through the origin $0,0$0,0 and point $1,1$1,1. The x- and y- axes are labeled and both ranges from -6 to 6.
