\label{Function_Plot_Response_Question}

Creating a \textbf{Function Plot Response} problem involves several steps. This section introduces the major settings and subsequent sections cover other details.

``Label x-axis'' and ``Label y-axis'' - Enter the label and/or units for the axes on the graph.  Leaving them blank will result in no axis labels.

``Minimum x-value'', ``Maximum x-value'', ``Minimum y-value'', and ``Maximum y-value'' - Entering values here will set the value of the graph at the left, right, bottom, and top edges (respectively).  Default is -10, 10, -10, and 10 respectively.

``x-axis visible'' and ``y-axis visible'' - This allows for each axis to be turned on or off.

``Grid visible'' - This determines whether or not the grid is on the graph.

``Background plot(s) for answer'' - This is a green curve the computer will display once the correct answer has been submitted.  It is static, and can be given as a piecewise function.  Since some problems will have multiple correct answers, this necessarily will only be a possible answer.  Only the left hand side of the equation is necessary.  For example, entering $x+2$ will display the line $y=x+2$.  The syntax must be syntax recognized by GeoGebra.
