OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm back o^O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Post both questions on here so I dun have to go back and forth pleases.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part A: Write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x). (6 points) Part B: Which function has a greater y-intercept? Justify your answer. (4 points)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, what do you think we do first for part a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one ins't like the rest...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is, remember that y = f(x). They are just tryna trick you into derping.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It worked. xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we are gonna be using the standard and slope intercept forms again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first, we find the slope. y1 - y2 over x1 - x2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

da fuk, it's y2-y1/x2-x1 o-o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0_0 Sheit. That means I gotta go back and redo some answers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I derped the derp up.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no no no I'm right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am right. I know I'm right, I am 100% positive.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://www.purplemath.com/modules/slope.htm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Weird, I know I'm right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Universe will explode in 3.. 2.. 1..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's the only site silly. http://cs.selu.edu/~rbyrd/math/slope/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

All other sites, y2-y1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've seen Jiji501's too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well maybe possibly they have same outcomes? lets try.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean they just inversed the y's on @jcpd910 's site so it comes to the same, really.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Slope of a straight line, and just slope formula, are different, no?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but wait, did I inverse my y's?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know. LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and yes @RockerSk8er same thing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

DEAR GOD! We need to contact nasa.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OR wait. they the same, not diffrent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets see if they have same outcome. 5-2 over 3-6 3 over -3 -3 2-5 over 6-3 -3 over 3 -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank the gods of derp.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, they are the same? xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Phew! xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jiji you are a clu, you almost made me punch my teeth out. xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XDXDXD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1403378787865:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Caption: "Wuuuuuuuuu"?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay back on track now.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Rocker, just do y1 - y2 over x1 - x2. They give you the points in the chart, because f(x) = y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. Function of x. Because the y is dependent to the x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jiji lemme take the lead and you can interject when you aren't gonna derp something up or something. o.o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, I'll watch o^O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay! \[\frac{ -9 - -1 }{ -1 - 0 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

= 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(>^-^)># u get a waffle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, I did?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

q.q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okayy~

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have slope now good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now what do you gotta do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do the same for the other equation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, but it's different method now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

g(x) is like f(x), same method.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I put 1 and 2 in for g(x), right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you mean g(1) and g(2)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hell to the yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can I intervene now? :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes you can silleh clu you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[g(1) = 3(1) - 2 \]\[g(1) = 3 - 2\]\[g(1) = 1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one more step after that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Uhhhhhhh.. g(x) = 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

g(x) = y q.q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Y = 1!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

booya so when x = 1 y = 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[g(2) = 3(2) - 2\]\[g(2) = 6 - 2\]\[g(2) = 4\]\[y = 4\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, so now you have your two points

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 1 - 4 }{ 1 -2 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

= 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where did that silly goose @jcpd910 go

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There you are.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was twerking.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In the moment ya know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Dead.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you have your two slopes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8, and 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, and compare them...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OHH OOH I KNOW! ONE IS FIVE LESS THAN THE OTHER! xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anyone plays gmod o^o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"Lisa has 8 apples, and I have 3. Lisa disappeared, and I have 8 more apples."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Excuse me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Forget my face. o.o lol moving on, how do we compare them exactly?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know..
