Is there a character limit to comments??

OpenStudy (igreen):

I'm trying to post a tutorial, but it's pretty long, and when I paste it it leaves out stuff..at first I thought it was the LaTeX, but when I removed it, it still did the same thing.

OpenStudy (igreen):

Here it is:

Someone else try to post it..I wanna see if it'll mess up on other people's computers too.

\(\huge\bf Types~of~Slope:\) \(\bf\small Positive~Slope:\) Positive slope rises from LEFT to RIGHT. Example: |dw:1415020076044:dw| \(\bf\small Negative~Slope:\) Negative slope declines from LEFT to RIGHT. Example: |dw:1415020134134:dw| \(\bf\small No~ Slope:\) Lines with no slope are horizontal, and parallel to the x-axis. Example: |dw:1415020208688:dw| \(\bf\small Undefined~Slope:\) Lines with undefined slope are vertical, and parallel to the y-axis. Example: |dw:1415020282978:dw| \(\huge\bf Finding~Slope:\) There are 3 different ways to find slope. \(\bf Equations:\) Some equations just give you the slope, for example: \(\bf\small Slope-intercept~form:\) \(y = \color{lime}mx + \color{blue}b\) Where \(\color{lime}m\) = slope, and \(\color{blue}b\) = y-intercept. So if we have: \(y = \color{lime}2x + \color{blue}5\) Our slope will be \(\color{lime}2\). \(\bf\small Point-Slope~form:\) \(y - \color{blue}{y_1} = \color{lime}{m}(x -\color{yellow}{ x_1})\) Where \(\color{lime}m\) = slope, \(\color{blue}{y_1}\) = y-value on the line, and \(\color{yellow}{x_1}\) = x-value on the line. So if we have: \(y - \color{blue}5 = \color{lime}5(x - \color{red}2)\) Our slope will be \(\color{blue}5\). But some equations like: \(\bf\small Standard~form:\) \(Ax + By = C\) To find the slope of the equation, we have to rearrange it into slope-intercept form(\(y = \color{lime}mx + \color{blue}b\)). So if we have: \(2x + 3y = 6\) First, we subtract 2x to both sides: \(3y = -2x + 6\) Now we divide 3 to all terms: \(y = \color{lime}{-\dfrac{2}{3}}x + \color{blue}2\) Now we can see that the slope of the equation is \(\color{lime}{-\dfrac{2}{3}}\), and the y-intercept is \(\color{blue}2\). \(\bf Graph:\) Slope is also defined as: \(\dfrac{Rise}{Run}\). We can see this on graphs of lines. Rise: Rise represents the numerator of the slope(ex: In \(m = \dfrac{1}{2}\) 1 is the rise). Rise can be either going up or down, where up brings a positive number and down brings a negative. Run: Run represents the denominator of the slope(ex: In \(m = -\dfrac{4}{5}\) -5 is the run). Graph example: |dw:1415019479723:dw| We can see that the rise here is \(2\), and the run is \(1\), that means the slope will be \(\dfrac{2}{1}\) which simplifies to \(2\). \(\bf Formula:\) The formula for slope is \(m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\). This formula is mostly used to find the slope between two points(ex: (2, 3) and (5, 8)). But it can also be used to find the slope on a graph, where we can just take two points from that graph and plug them in. If we are given: \((\color{red}5,\color{lime} 6)\) and \((\color{yellow}8, \color{blue}{12})\) ^ ^ = \(\color{lime}{y_1}\) ^ ^ = \(\color{blue}{y_2}\) | = \(\color{red}{x_1}\) | = \(\color{yellow}{x_2}\) Plug them into the slope equation: \(m = \dfrac{\color{blue}{y_2}-\color{lime}{y_1}}{\color{yellow}{x_2}-\color{red}{x_1}}\) \(m = \dfrac{\color{blue}{12}-\color{lime}6}{\color{yellow}8-\color{red}5}\) Subtract the terms in the numerator and the denominator: \(m = \dfrac{6}{3}\) Simplify by dividing: \(m = 2\) Therefore the slope between \((5, 6)\) and \((8, 12)\) is \(\color{red}2\).

And when you try to post the 'Types of Slope' section, it just posts a blank space..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no one ever helps me with my ?'s but u help everyone elses I've tried 4 a week now and no one has answered my ? I thought u guys said u helped everyone but u r helping everyone except me!!!!!!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o already closed my ? so now it's 2 late 2 answer it thanks guys 4 your help your really thoughtful not.

There we go.. All I did was take out the drawings, because you can't have multiple drawings. I also edited a few things to make it look neater, and not spaced out, since I deleted the drawings

sammixboo (sammixboo):

You might just have to post links of screenshots of the drawings.

OpenStudy (opcode):

It is hot that you cannot have multiple drawings, drawings are per thread specific, copying to cross post does not work.
