can u check my work plz

OpenStudy (madhatter):

these r to find the slope a (2,2),(5,3)=(3,1) and then i have b (1,-1),(4,-1)=(3,0) and then c (2,-3),(2,9)=(),12) are these right????

OpenStudy (madhatter):

each is a separate problem all i need is to see if i got them right so for ex: i have (2,2),(5,3)=(3,1) i just need to see if (3,1)is right

OpenStudy (madhatter):

do u understand or do u need more explanation

OpenStudy (madhatter):

i need to know what the slope is just need u to check it

OpenStudy (madhatter):

better now

@Mertsj

OpenStudy (madhatter):

oh god ok so u know how to find slope right ... cuz if u dont then i dont know y u r thying to help me

OpenStudy (madhatter):

*trying

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry friend, my knowledge may be far lower than yours, cannot help, I ask Merstji already, he is very smart and knows many thing.

OpenStudy (madhatter):

ok thanks for trying

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

the answers are incorrect and poorly written for a \[m = \frac{3 - 2}{5 - 2} = \frac{1}{3}\] the slope formula is \[m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x{1}}\] so its difference in y divided by difference in x for question (a) I used y2 = 3 and y1 = 2 x2 = 5 and x1 = 2 thats why I get the slope m = 1/3 does this make sense

OpenStudy (mertsj):

a (2,2),(5,3)=(3,1) so slope = 1/3 and then i have b (1,-1),(4,-1)=(3,0) slope = 0/3=0 and then c (2,-3),(2,9)=(),12) slope = 12/0 = undefined

OpenStudy (madhatter):

thank u @campbell_st and @Mertsj

OpenStudy (mertsj):

you need to remember that slope is change in y OVER change in x.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

yw

OpenStudy (madhatter):

ok i will

OpenStudy (mertsj):

And Hoa is a very smart guy...might be a little language challenged is all.

OpenStudy (madhatter):

oh ok lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Mertsj I don't understand a word from those slope. thnaks for compliment

OpenStudy (mertsj):

I know that you know how to find gradient
