so we are looking at something like y'=y?
i think so
http://www.sosmath.com/diffeq/slope/slope1.html so I think we can look at this y'=e^(-y) as an example
since we have y'=a function of y
what do you observe about that particular slope field?
like compare column 1 to column 2
actually compare the rows too
you remember what parallel means?
that's a dumb question of course you do
let's look at row 7 all the slopes in row 7 are the ____
where's row 7?
it doesn't matter but when I count down it starts above that 0 number
|dw:1425614660501:dw| looks kinda like this but it looks more perfect there
it doesn't matter what row you look all the lines in each row have the same what?
parallel lines have the same _____
@mathrulezz pick one row in that y'=exp(-y) picture compare the lines in one row aren't all the lines in a single row with the same slope meaning you have parallel lines in that row
you can even look at the next graph that follows you have another y'=g(y) kinda thing going on pick one row there if you want if you aren't convinced all the lines in a single row have the same slope
ok thank u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so i got: C, will produce a slope field with rows of parallel tangents
cool
