Question

Graph the function f(x)=2x5+2x +12

Answer 1

f(x) = 2x + 22, The slope is 2/1

Explanation:

Start by combining common terms.

For example, you can't combine 2x and 5, because 2 is being multiplied by a variable.

So, take the x value: 2x

And the numerical values: 22

And combine them: f(x) = 2x + 22

This means, that you start at 22 on the y-axis and slope the line by 2/1. That means that, on a graph, the line goes up 2 points, then one point to the right.
