If y = 4x + 3 were changed to y = -4x + 3, how would the graph of the new function compare with the original?

a. it would be steeper.
b. it would be less steep.
c. it would change orientation and slant down.
d. it would change orientation and slant up.

The answer is C. it would change orientation and slant down.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two lines are just mirror images of each other. In this case, the slope is just the opposite, causing it to be the way it is. The y intercept is the same which also causes the mirror imaging.

step-by-step explanation:

y = | -2(-2) |     →     y = | 4 |     →     y = 4       ⇒   (-2, 4)

y = | -2(-1) |     →     y = | 2 |     →       y =   2       ⇒   (-1, 2)    

y = | -2(0) |     →     y = | 0 |     →       y = 0         ⇒   (0, 0)

y = | -2(1) |   c →     y = | -2 |     →     y =   2         ⇒   (1, 2)    

y = | -2(2) |     →     y = | - 4 |     →     y =   4         ⇒   (2, 4)
