Asked by carly
If I have an equation, q(x) = x, and I have to identify what the graph of that would look like, isn't it just going to be a straight line?
There are two straight lines to choose from -- one is horizontal across the x-axis on the 1, and the other is horizontal across the x-axis on the 2.
Which is correct?
Thank you.

The way you described the given graphs, neither one is correct
q(x) = x or y = x
is a straight line passing through the origin and forming a 45° with the x-axis
