slope will be same. So just find the slope of line that passes through (4, 6) and (−1, −4)

Answer 2

myko, I don't get it.

Answer 3

dan815 Can you give me the direct answer? I need a numeracal answer.

Answer 4

@dan815 Myko basically told me to do what I am trying to figure out. It's just like me asking, what is 1+1 and then Myko saying, we'll you have to first figure out what 1+1 is, then you willl get your answer.

Answer 5

No.

Answer 6

What is the answer then?

Answer 7

I alreeady did learn a little.

Answer 8

I used to know ALL about this stuff a long time ago. But forgot

Answer 9

The slope of the line is the rise + the run

Answer 10

-1 to 4 we moved 5
-4 to 6 we moved 10

Answer 11

half?

Answer 12

Why does x = 1?

Answer 13

idk.

Answer 14

Oh 5 and 10

Answer 15

Wait, shouldnt x = 6?

Answer 16

ya that was type -1 to 4

Answer 17

typo*

Answer 18

okay, x = 5
Y = 10

Answer 19

okay soo first imagine what this looks like okay!
and change in x =5
change in y = 10

Answer 20

so for 5 units right, it went up 10 units
for 1 unit right, how many units up?

Answer 21

idk

Answer 22

ok can u see a relationship between 5 and 10 ><

Answer 23

basically for 5 units in x u move 10 units in y
or 2*x=y

Answer 24

y is twice what x is right

Answer 25

so when x moves 1, and y is twice what x is >_> y will move by 2

Answer 26

okay, I see so far.

Answer 27

okay just remember this formula, ull understand slope later
