i have no idea thats y im asking o.o

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Step 1. Forget that it's an inequality graph. Consider it as a straight line. (y=mx+b)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Try making an equation now.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummm..... im not sure o.o i just started this unit so im not sure exactly....

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Rings a bell?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Cool. So now find the slope of the line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk what the m is but the y intercept it -1.. right?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

right..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):
