How do I align the following two graphs so that their x-axes are aligned? In both graphs, the top of the y-axis is higher than I want. It seems to be at a height between 13 and 14. How do I get them to a height of 11?
\documentclass{amsart}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.11}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[width=3in,axis equal image,
axis lines=middle,
xmin=-4,xmax=8,samples=101,
xlabel=$x$,ylabel=$y$,
ymin=-2,ymax=10,
restrict y to domain=-2:10,
enlargelimits={abs=1cm},
axis line style={latex-latex},
ticklabel style={font=\tiny,fill=white},
xtick={2,10},ytick={},
xlabel style={at={(ticklabel* cs:1)},anchor=north west},
ylabel style={at={(ticklabel* cs:1)},anchor=south west}
]
\addplot [latex-latex,domain=-4:8] {x + 2} node [pos=0.9, anchor=north west, font=\footnotesize] {$y=f(x)$};
\draw [fill=white] (2,4) circle [radius=1.5pt] node[right,font=\tiny]{$(2, \, 4)$};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}

To get the max y values to be identical eliminate the
enlargelimits
and specify the desiredymax=11
for both graphs:Notes:
\end{tikzpicture}
and\begin{tikzpicture}
