Do you know how to find slope?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a lil bit

Ok, for the first one, we need to put it in slope-intercept form which is y=mx+b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait i think 1 is A positive right
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
How are you getting that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
by going to the slope
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
It isn't in slope intercept form though.

and number 2 is negative correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
look it up on google put things in slope form
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
Number 2 is in slope intercept form, the coefficient before x is the slope.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
o lol so number 2 is A positive cause it shows no negative right
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
Yes

Now, let's work through number 1 together.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ik number 3 is negative
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
2x+3y=-9
Subtract 2x from each side
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
Yep, number 3 is negative
OpenStudy (anonymous):

number 1
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
But number 1 is not positive
OpenStudy (texaschic101):
for 1 and 2 you will need them in y = mx + b form, where m is the slope.
for 3 and 4, you can use slope formula : slope = (y - y1) / (x - x1)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea thats wat i meant really lol
OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
You need to understand why number 1 is not positive.
