Answer 1

Use the slope formula for this

Answer 2

C = 23 w/3 + 995/3

Answer 3

The number's so ugly!

Answer 4

No one said it had to be pretty

Answer 5

Be It's me hate it :P

Answer 6

My final form for fractions is always this :

\[C = \frac{23w + 995}{3}\]

So it's more simplified and compact into one fraction

Answer 7

yes, but it'll be hard to understand for the asker

Answer 8

Not if you post the steps

Answer 9

I tend to factor the 1/3 in front, still it looks ..

Answer 10

To me simplification is making the most minimal form. In this case, one compact form

Answer 11

and yet you only posted the answer, no steps

Answer 12

She's gone. She posted this a couple hours ago. The ideal thing to do when someone is not present is to post a complete solution.

Answer 13

I think you guy's should be helping other people and not arguing.

Answer 14

@gageallen15 , who said we were arguing?

Answer 15

I just think of an argument when i look at this. It's not worth your guy's time. The problem was answered and i think that she understood it, if she needed steps she would ask for them. That's all im saying.

Answer 16

Yep, 100% agree!

Answer 17

@gageallen15 , no one was arguing. We were just sharing thoughts.

Answer 18

Chlorophyll, I'm sorry if you thought we were arguing

Answer 19

Well i think you went a little overboard my friend. Like i said before i think she understood it, and if she needed steps she would ask. But have a good day my friends and be sure to come help me out sometimes cause im new here :)

Answer 20

I saw you posted instruction, so I post answer, see if the asker connect them together!

Answer 21

I went overboard @gageallen15
Can you explain how? The only thing I was trying to explain wast that posting an answer without a solution isn't helpful. Since you're new here, you don't really understand how things work.

Answer 22

See, how you are talking too me now make's me not want to be here. If people are going to get defensive over stupid things like this maybe this site isn't for me.

Answer 23

@gageallen15 thank for viewing different angles :)

Answer 24

Please, it's not worth it!

Answer 25

Your welcome :) Have a nice day, and Hero I am done with you. You look at it one way i look at it another. Just leave it alone.

Answer 26

@gageallen15 , I don't even understand why you even felt the need to comment on this. If you re-read the previous statements, you'll see that I wasn't saying anything offensive to you. In fact, most of my comments before you intervened were directed towards Chlorophyll.

Answer 27

@Hero I always have reasons what I'm doing!

Answer 28

All's I am saying is that Chlorophyll wasn't doing anything wrong. He did what was needed to be done and he helped out on someone's question. I thought that you were in the wrong for telling him he wasn't doing it rite.

Answer 29

Pls don't waste your temper for trivial stuff, will you. Thanks!

Answer 30

The askers not even showed up! It's not worth to spend more time on it!

Answer 31

I didn't say that he did anything wrong. I said that the ideal thing to do is to post a solution. I don't understand how a new user feels the necessity to intervene in a convo that doesn't concern him. If you have a question you'd like to post, feel free to post it, and someone will help you with it. If you want to post the solution to this problem, then that is fine. There's no need for you to intervene with something I am discussing with chlorophyll.

Answer 32

Lol, your funny.

Answer 33

@Hero, now you really make me uncomfortable, because I dragged gageallen into argument with you!

Answer 34

It's ok im leaving now and im not going to waste my time anymore. Have a nice day friends.

Answer 35

I think both of you are buddies teaming up against me

Answer 36

@Hero, should you drink water now:P

Answer 37

Why? Am I thirsty?

Answer 38

uMad?
