Write the given equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, by solving for y: 4x – 2y = 10 Answer y = 2x – 5 y = 2x + 5 y = -2x – 5 y = -2x + 5 The point (3, 0) is a solution of the equation: y = 2x − 11 Answer True False
@aegidious
u good at math?
yeah, okay first you want to isolate the y value so to do that, you subtract the x value from both sides to get it onto the other side 4x-2y=10 -4x -4x -2y=10-4x
make sense so far?
ok yeah
then you divide everything by -2 to get y all by itself
ok i dont get it :/
you need to get y=mx+b, right? well we have -2y=-4x+10
we need to get that -2 off of the y, okay? that way y is all by itself
oh ok now i get it
so what answer did you get?
is the answer (c) ?
the 3rd one down? you don't have them lettered in the question so I don't know which is C
is this the answer y = -2x – 5
the third one
you forget that when you're dividing negatives, they become positive. -4x is a negative divided by a negative -2
try again
so if they become positive numbers then i think the answer is y=2x+5
mmmm the negative -4x becomes a positive 2x, yes BUT a positive divided by a negative becomes negative. The positive 10 divided by a negative then becomes.......what? ;)
u know it would be very nice if u would just give me the answer:]
ok the answer has to be y=2x-5 right....
YES! :)
lol ty so u gonna help me with the second Q?
and then for the second one, all you do is plug 3 into the x value. If you calculate your y as being 0, then the answer is true. If you get any other number for y, then it's false
the answer is -5 so is it false?
Exactly :)
yay -pats myself on the back- :]
Calculate the slope of the points (-2, -1) and (3, 4). Answer 1 2 3 4 wb this Q
give a medal if you like my help ;)
ok but if u just leave after i give it to u im gonna end ur life :]
come at me bro!!! XD
lolol okay, do you know rise over run?
oh trust me i will
did just gimmi the answer and i'll fan u
the slope is 1
good boy :]
Solve the following system of linear equations. 3x + 2y = 10 2x + 3y = 15/2 Answer No solution y = (-3/2)x + 5 x = 3, y = -1/2 x = 3, y = 1/2<----this is my answer
is it correct?
nuh huh, can only do so much ;) If you want my help, open another question XD
i hate u ok give me a second
