URGENT PLEASE HELP Fan+Medallion! Which equation is graphed here A. y-3= -2/3(x+1) B. y-4= -3/2(x+2) C. y-1= -3/2(x+3) D. y+1= -2/3(x-3) http://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1312500_1313000/1312639/1/5634cf4cc78c5f954e9151076931e1346ad3a658/HS_A1G2_S1_07_08_ART1.jpg

@Vandreigan

Whats the slope of the graphed line?

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

i have no idea.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[slope = \frac{Rise}{Run}\] or you can find two points and do this: \[slope = \frac{Y_2 - Y_1}{X_2 - X_1}\] with the x and y values of the points.

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

idk what the rise is and the run is... i missed a day at school and then i came home to do my extra math studies and i had the same study on my extra as i did on my school

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use the second equation, then. Find two points, plug in their x and y values as shown.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rise is up and down (y-axis) , run is left and right (x-axis)

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

ok so i found (2,0)

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

what would the slope of that be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

2,0

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

so i divide 2 by 0?

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

because...

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

that is impossibru

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. Pick two points that are on the line, that you can easily tell the coordinates of.

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

2,1?

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

if you look at my original post on the comments it displays my options

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope. The point (2,1) isn't on the line. (0,1) is, though. Can you find another?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the slope will be negative because it goes diagonally up left... choose 2 points and list their coordinates below... ex (x,y)

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

hmm...

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

im writing this into an e^2 and it's harddddddd

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

e^2 =equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why?

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

i come from the garrys mod community and i mess around alot with wiremod and expression^2

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

and as a shorthand we just write e^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just dont rely on video games... here we actually do math there they mess around

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

wiremod is very complex... go look it up

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

ill post a link

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

http://wiki.wiremod.com/wiki/Main_Page

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

you write out code in lua and implement it directly into the game

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

it involves a ton of calculus and algebraic problems

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no im good... one coordinate is (0,1) another is (2,-2) now insert into equation \[m= \frac{ rise }{ run }\] \[m= \frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]

OpenStudy (jacobbirddog):

guys this will sound very lame but i have to go due to an event i planned a week earlier... sorry ;^;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem. Enjoy!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok we'll just continue when you get back...
