Chapter 13.6, Problem 3WE

To determine

To graph : on the same axes.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: The equation $y=\frac{1}{2}x+b$ for $b=0,2,4,-2\&-4$ .

Graph :

  

Interpretation :

From the above graph the blue lines represents $y=\frac{1}{2}x+4$ , the black line represents $y=\frac{1}{2}x$ , the red lines represents $y=\frac{1}{2}x+2$ , the brown line represents $y=\frac{1}{2}x-2$ and the grey line represents $y=\frac{1}{2}x-4$ .
