@xGuardians

Answer 2

I got history homework, try on your own :o
Look at the:

y rate of change / x rate of change

Answer 3

I'll let you know if you get the answer right :)

Answer 4

*points to the formula provided on previous question*

Answer 5

@iambatman Can you give me the formula again. OS is acting up and I'm scared if I try to go to that question it's going to freeze my computer again. *puppy dog eyes*

Answer 6

\[\huge m = \frac{ y_{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]

Answer 7

Plug in any of the (x,y) coordinates and you'll get your answer, the formula means rise/run in a sense.

Answer 8

OK, I get that. How do I find the coordinates with that kind of graph? @iambatman @xGuardians

Answer 9

Who needs a graph, when you got the table!

Answer 10

Use your (x,y) values from the table :d

Answer 11

Right. :) Which ones though? There's 4 sets! @iambatman

Answer 12

@iambatman @xGuardians

Answer 13

Sorry, connection always stops working for this site -.-, any two points.

Answer 14

\[m=\frac{ -10--4 }{-4--2 }\]

Answer 15

@iambatman

Answer 16

Where did you get -10 from? These numbers o_O

Answer 17

Oh crap! Sorry I was looking at another problem. Let me fix that. :) LOL. :):):)\[M=\frac{ 2-3.5 }{ -4--1 }\]

Answer 18

@iambatman

Answer 19

You have it backwards :3 y2 - y1

Answer 20

\[m = \frac{ 3.5-2 }{ -1-(-4) }\]

Answer 21

Oh! I see. :) Well...At least I got some of it right. :) What do I do now? Do I just solve it?

Answer 22

yup

Answer 23

So...
M= 1.5/3 @iambatman

Answer 24

@iambatman @xGuardians @undeadknight26 @Squirrels

Answer 25

Why always in a rush yo, and yup

Answer 26

What would that be simplified to?

Answer 27

1/2

Answer 28

That's what I though. I'm bad at doing it in my head. :) So c? @iambatman

Answer 29

Lol yes, I know you can read!

Answer 30

Yay!!!
