AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a coordinate system with x and y axes spaced at intervals of 1. Plot the graphs of functions y=x^1, y=x^2, y=x^3, y=x^4, and y=x^5, then shift each graph 0.7 units to the right sequentially, for a total of 4 shifts. Next, plot the graphs of functions x=y^1, x=y^2, x=y^3, x=y^4, and x=y^5, and shift each graph 0.7 units to the right sequentially, for a total of 4 shifts.
