  1. Replace yy with y-y: To determine if the graph of an equation is symmetric with respect to the x-axis, replace yy with y-y in the equation. If the resulting equation is equivalent to the original, the graph is symmetric with respect to the x-axis.\newlineFor equation (a) x2+y+2=0x^2 + y + 2 = 0, replace yy with y-y to get x2y+2=0x^2 - y + 2 = 0. This is not equivalent to the original equation, so the graph is not symmetric with respect to the x-axis.
  2. Replace xx with x-x: To determine if the graph of an equation is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, replace xx with x-x in the equation. If the resulting equation is equivalent to the original, the graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.\newlineFor equation (a) x2+y+2=0x^2 + y + 2 = 0, replace xx with x-x to get (x)2+y+2=0(-x)^2 + y + 2 = 0, which simplifies to x2+y+2=0x^2 + y + 2 = 0. This is equivalent to the original equation, so the graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
  3. Replace x and y with -x and -y: To determine if the graph of an equation is symmetric with respect to the origin, replace x with -x and y with -y in the equation. If the resulting equation is equivalent to the original, the graph is symmetric with respect to the origin.\newlineFor equation (a) x^22 + y + 22 = 00, replace x with -x and y with -y to get (-x)^22 - y + 22 = 00, which simplifies to x^22 - y + 22 = 00. This is not equivalent to the original equation, so the graph is not symmetric with respect to the origin.
  4. Repeat for equation (b): Now, we will repeat the process for equation (b) y=5x3+2y = 5x^3 + 2. To determine if the graph is symmetric with respect to the xx-axis, replace yy with y-y to get y=5x3+2-y = 5x^3 + 2. This is not equivalent to the original equation, so the graph is not symmetric with respect to the xx-axis.
  5. Replace yy with y-y: To determine if the graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, replace xx with x-x to get y=5(x)3+2y = 5(-x)^3 + 2, which simplifies to y=5x3+2y = -5x^3 + 2. This is not equivalent to the original equation, so the graph is not symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
  6. Replace xx with x-x: To determine if the graph is symmetric with respect to the origin, replace xx with x-x and yy with y-y to get y=5(x)3+2-y = 5(-x)^3 + 2, which simplifies to y=5x3+2-y = -5x^3 + 2. If we multiply both sides by 1-1, we get y=5x32y = 5x^3 - 2, which is not equivalent to the original equation, so the graph is not symmetric with respect to the origin.
