-2(x-0.5+1)
I need help!

-2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (x - 0.5 + 1)

=-2 (x + 0.5)

=-2x - (2*0.5)

=-2x - 1 (this can be written in another form)

= -(2x + 1)

2? if not the correct answer you might need to provide more information

step-by-step explanation:

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.
