1) A coordinate plane shows the x and y axes ranging from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 1. A downward line with arrows at both ends passes through the second, first, and fourth quadrants. The line intersects the x-axis at left parenthesis 2 comma 0 right parenthesis, and the y-axis at left parenthesis 0 comma 2 right parenthesis.

2) A coordinate plane shows the x and y axes ranging from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 1. An upward line with arrows at both ends passes through the first, fourth, and third quadrants. The line passes through left parenthesis 2 comma 3 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis negative 2 comma negative 5 right parenthesis.

1) A coordinate plane shows the x and y axes ranging from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 1. A downward line with arrows at both ends passes through the second, first, and fourth quadrants. The line intersects the x-axis at (2,0), and the y-axis at (0,2).

This sketch exhibits the qualitative features of the function with an initial value of 2 and a slope of -1.
