OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

Do I find the neg rec of the slope and plug into point slope form?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yes

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

Nice. Thanks.

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

Why are the smart scores not coming up?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the site has been defunk for about a month now i beleive ... not sure why.

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

ok. Thanks for you help.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

good luck :)

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

@amistre64 , sorry to bother you again, but I got y=-4/3x +-5/3 and it says it is wrong. Can you help me find my mistake?

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

I ment to type -5/3, not +- lol

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[y=-\frac43(x-5)+0\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

you did not distribute that slope correctly

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i used to tell my calculus teacher: do you know how much algebra i had to forgot just to learn this?

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

I have done this for years, but have not used it in a while. Thanks!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

y = -4/3 x + 20/3 is what i see it as, good luck again ;)
