The graph of y=x + 3 is a vertical translation of

the graph of y = x + 1, 2 units upward. Examine the intercepts of both lines

and state another way that the geometric relationship between the two graphs

can be described.

we have

step 1

y=x+3

Find the x-intercepts

Value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

0=x+3

solve for x

x=-3

step 2

y=x+1

Find the x-intercepts

Value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

0=x+1

x=-1

step 3

The graph of y=x+3 is a horizontal translation 2 units at left of the graph of y=x+1

The rule is

(x,y) -------> (x-2,y)
