solve 2=x+2-1 using the following graph
(-5,2)
(-4,-1)
(-3,-2)
(-2,-1)
(-1,2)
verify your solution algebraically
To solve the equation 2 = x + 2 - 1 using the given graph, we can look for the point on the graph where the y-coordinate is 2.
From the given graph, we can see that the point (-5,2) satisfies this condition. This means that the value of x when y = 2 is -5.
Algebraically, we can solve the equation as follows:
2 = x + 2 - 1
First, let's combine like terms on the right side of the equation:
2 = x + 1
Next, subtract 1 from both sides to isolate the x term:
2 - 1 = x + 1 - 1
1 = x
So the value of x that satisfies the equation is 1.
Comparing the algebraic solution (x = 1) with the point (-5,2) on the graph, we can conclude that there might be a mistake in the given graph or the points provided.
