could somebody please help me? I have a similar problem for my upcoming state test, I need to learn this before then. thanks ; On a city map, Washington Street is straight and passes through points at (7, 13) and (1, 5). Wellington Street is straight and passes through points at (3, 24) and (9, 32). Do Washington Street and Wellington Street intersect? How do you know?

i believe this is how i would do it first get graph paper @nickster

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you got the graph paper the punch in those points

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now draw a line from the points that you put on your graphing paper and find you intersecting point

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what did you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
