rred to these lines as X and Y- axes. Construct the two lines.From the original equationwe see that the curvetouches the X-axis atthe point (4; 0), and doesnot cut the F-axis. Itis then easily seen whichis the positive direction of the axis OX, and the curve can beplotted as in Fig. 91. 2. Plot by… … Fig. 91. 182 ANALYTIC GEOMETRY [Ch. XIII, §97 when A = 0, 97.
