Can someone help with one question?

Can you pick two points on this graph that are easy to read and write down their coordinates?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(0, 1) ?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Good. That's one point. Can you choose another one?

OpenStudy (tanner23456):

First find the slope of the line given m = slope = rise/ run pick two obvious points on the graph and find the slope between them. (0,1) and (-3,5) seems to be the easiest the slope between these two is -4/3 for a perpendicular slope you just flip the slope and change the sign opposite reciprocal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 3/4 ?

OpenStudy (tanner23456):

you got it

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Did you understand how the slope was calculated?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help with one more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

First check that every graph contains the point (-4, 2)

OpenStudy (tanner23456):

the easiest way to solve this one is to plot the first point and navigate the second one with the slope so (-4,2) |dw:1364497558645:dw|
