Analyze each step to identify if Andy made an error
Andy wrote the equation of a line that has a slope of
and passes through the point (3,-2) in function notation.
Step 1: y-(-2) = (x - 3)
Step 2: y + 2 = x-
Step 3: y + 2 + 2 = x -+ 2
Step 4: y = x-
Step 5: f(x) = x -
Yes, he made an error in Step 1. He switched the x
and y values
Yes, he made an error in Step 2. He did not
distribute 3 properly
Yes, he made an error in Step 3. He should have
subtracted 2 from both sides.
No, his work is correct.
