no

Trail X has a positive slope

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

Why?

|dw:1417197664500:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So thats y right?

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

Okay

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

LoveLilly, you drew a negative slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solomin I know, that is for Y though, and is asking out X, so Perpendicular means meets at a right angle right?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

so, then label your pictures properly please:)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

because it looked a bit confusing, what exactly you meant.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay I will keep that in mind. Thanks

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

I don't actually whats going on right now

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

not like I helped so nothing to thank me for, but good to hear that you will... now, I won't interrupt you anymore. thank YOU for participating....

So perpendicular means that they come together at a 90 degree angle. And don't worry about what Solomin was saying, that was directed towards me. So when x meets y at a 90 degree angle, the slope has to be positive.

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

Ok that makes sense i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Make any sense? Or do I need to explain it a different way?

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

Yeah I think it makes sense. So my answer would be B? Only B? Cause it gives me the option to select more than one.

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

@LoveLilly ??

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

I'm thinking it might also be D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, y is also steeper... so B and D

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

Hahaha :D

OpenStudy (mwhit2101):

Thanks :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem :)
