To graph the relation y = 2x - 12 - 4, we need to plot several key points and connect them to create a line.
To find the key points, we can assign arbitrary values for x and calculate the corresponding y values using the equation.
Let's start by assigning x = 0:
y = 2(0) - 12 - 4
y = -12 - 4
y = -16
So the first key point is (0, -16).
Next, let's assign x = 1:
y = 2(1) - 12 - 4
y = 2 - 12 - 4
y = -14
So the second key point is (1, -14).
Now let's assign x = 2:
y = 2(2) - 12 - 4
y = 4 - 12 - 4
y = -12
So the third key point is (2, -12).
We can continue this process to find more key points, but let's stop here for simplicity.
Plotting the key points (0, -16), (1, -14), and (2, -12) on a graph and connecting them will give us the graph of the relation y = 2x - 12 - 4.
Here is a visual representation of the graph:
