Final answer:
To solve the given equation by graphing, rearrange it into y = mx + b form, plot points on a coordinate plane, and check if the solution satisfies the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation 16 = x + 4 + (2⁴ - 6) by graphing, we need to rearrange the equation to the form y = mx + b. In this case, we have y = x + 4 + (2⁴ - 6), so we can graph the equation y = x + 10.
To graph the equation, we can plot the points on a coordinate plane. Start by plotting the point (0, 10) as it represents the y-intercept, and then use the slope of 1 to find the next point. For example, if we move right 1 unit and up 1 unit, we get the point (1, 11).
To check if our solution is correct, we can substitute a value for x in the equation and see if it satisfies the equation. For example, substituting x = 1 into the equation gives us 16 = 1 + 10, which is true.
