@SolomonZelman Any Ideas?

OpenStudy (shamil98):

m = 1 \[\huge m = \frac{ y_2 - y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }\] plug in the values you know and then solve for y

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\[\huge\color{red}{\frac{y-3}{5-4}=1}\]\[\huge\color{red}{\frac{y-3}{1}=1}\]\[\huge\color{red}{ y-3 =1}\]\[\huge\color{red}{ y =4}\]

OpenStudy (shamil98):

\[\huge 1 = \frac{ 3-y }{ 5-4 }\]

OpenStudy (shamil98):

\[\huge 1 = 3- y\] \[\huge -2 = -y\] \[\huge y = 2\]

OpenStudy (shamil98):

@SolomonZelman you mixed up y_1 and y_2 lol

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yeah for number 1) it is 2, look at shamil98 's work....

Thanks Guys!

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I did mess up on #1.

OpenStudy (shamil98):

for number 2 use the slope formula and determine the slope.
