Dude what is that?
it is a metting i made
Well thanks for the link, but I don't think its gonna help me get this problem done :)
il help u what isit
I attached a file at the top. I don't really get how to figure out the ones that have a variable at the beginning of the equation.
Let me clarify, the ones that have a variable and a number. I know how to graph them using y=mx +b, but don't seem to get any of those answers.
As you can see both of the lines have a single root...now try and see which ones have the same root...ok?
Yes, they cross each other at one point. and tha point is (-5,0)
Yes...so which one is the answer...?
I don't know, that why I posted the question. :)
:)
Can you help me? @cyber405
Why not? Do you know how to get the root of these equations...?
Umm honestly I don't remember.
The root of a linear equation is the point which they cross the X line... In this point Y=0...and if you put Y=0 in the equation you can get the root... ok? Now try and see if you can find the answer...
Can someone jsut explain how to find this, then I will check back with them when I get the answer, and see if its correct? I learn best of someone shows me how to do it the first time.
Both lines intersect at (-5,0) A little mental arithmetic will confirm the first group as the answer.
Holy cow I feel dumb. You jsut plug in the coordinates?
Y = -x + 4 .... Y=0 .... 0=-x + 4..........x=4 (root) Y=-8x+11......Y=0......0=-8x+11........8x=11.......x=11/8 You should find the roots like this....ok?
Ok gotcha.. Thanks bro.
Don't mention it...
