helpp im on a timer lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (help!!!!):

same thing. ax+by=c form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it c or D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its c lol

zepdrix (zepdrix):

tick tock c: what's the timer down to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can someone just give me the answer -.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 mins :(

zepdrix (zepdrix):

oh my :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help bbyyy :(

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\Large\rm \frac{2}{3}x+\frac{5}{2}y=2\]So we need to multiply each side by 6, yes?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Because that's the lowest common factor for our denominators.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\Large\rm 6\frac{2}{3}x+6\frac{5}{2}y=6\cdot2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its A? :3

zepdrix (zepdrix):

You're just guessing letters over and over -_- just simmer down for a sec lol is this the last one? can we use all 3 minutes for this one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i multiplied 2/3 * 6 and got 4 so i choose b -.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and no theres 2 more :(

zepdrix (zepdrix):

If you write 6 as 3times2, \[\Large\rm (3\cdot2)\frac{2}{3}x+(3\cdot2)\frac{5}{2}y=12\]You can see that the first term shares a 3 in front and in the denominator.\[\Large\rm (\cancel{3}\cdot2)\frac{2}{\cancel{3}}x+(3\cdot2)\frac{5}{2}y=12\]Giving us:\[\Large\rm 4x+(3\cdot2)\frac{5}{2}y=12\]You can do similar with the other term.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Oh my bad :c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its b ? a ? c? d ahahaha help omfg 1 min :(

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Our first and last term are correct. See how it matches up with option A so far? c: If we finished up with the middle term, we would see that's our option.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C? ;)

zepdrix (zepdrix):

You didn't leave us enough time dude >.< I'm pretty sure it's A unless I made a boo boo.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it a or c lol help please so i can submit!!

zepdrix (zepdrix):

A

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Oh no the clock is tickin! :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay thanks ily omfg can you help me with 1 more? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@zepdrix

zepdrix (zepdrix):

maybe -_-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

<3

zepdrix (zepdrix):

are you FLVS or something?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whats that o: lol

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Florida Virtual Schools :d nevermind.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I googled it but no im not lol-.- i failed 9th grade math and they gave me a week to finish alg 1 and 2 so i can graduate to college :D

zepdrix (zepdrix):

oo neato :o

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\Large\rm 12=2x+4y\]Standard form looks like this: \(\Large\rm Ax+By=C\) which is the same as \(\Large\rm C=Ax+By\) Where \(\Large\rm A\), \(\Large\rm B\) and \(\Large\rm C\) are integers. Usually C is supposed to be positive I think.....

zepdrix (zepdrix):

So, based on that information, what do you think? :d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\Large\rm 12=\color{#CC0033}{2}x+\color{#3366CF}{4}y\]\[\Large\rm 12=\color{#CC0033}{A}x+\color{#3366CF}{B}y\] So this is showing us that, \(\Large\rm \color{#CC0033}{A=2}, \qquad\qquad \color{#3366CF}{B=4}\) `The requirement that A and B are NOT both zero is not satisfied`.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Hmmm that doesn't sound right. That IS satisfied, correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah c:

zepdrix (zepdrix):

So try again >:U

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its a or b -.-

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Woops I made a small boo boo in my explanation. The \(\Large\rm A\) value should be positive for it to be in standard form, not necessarily \(\Large\rm C\).

zepdrix (zepdrix):

It's actually D. I'm not quite sure why you don't see it :c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg sorry i was reading it wrong :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i get it now omfg thanks <3

zepdrix (zepdrix):

We have `some number of x's` plus `some number of y's` = `a number` right? :o standard

zepdrix (zepdrix):

k :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help me with 1 more ;) ?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

fine <.<

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok this is the last one i promise :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Do you know how to plot points? 0_o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes -.-
