OpenStudy (freckles):

so we are looking at something like y'=y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so

OpenStudy (freckles):

http://www.sosmath.com/diffeq/slope/slope1.html so I think we can look at this y'=e^(-y) as an example

OpenStudy (freckles):

since we have y'=a function of y

OpenStudy (freckles):

what do you observe about that particular slope field?

OpenStudy (freckles):

like compare column 1 to column 2

OpenStudy (freckles):

actually compare the rows too

OpenStudy (freckles):

you remember what parallel means?

OpenStudy (freckles):

that's a dumb question of course you do

OpenStudy (freckles):

let's look at row 7 all the slopes in row 7 are the ____

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where's row 7?

OpenStudy (freckles):

it doesn't matter but when I count down it starts above that 0 number

OpenStudy (freckles):

|dw:1425614660501:dw| looks kinda like this but it looks more perfect there

OpenStudy (freckles):

it doesn't matter what row you look all the lines in each row have the same what?

OpenStudy (freckles):

parallel lines have the same _____

OpenStudy (freckles):

@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

OpenStudy (freckles):

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

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so i got: C, will produce a slope field with rows of parallel tangents

OpenStudy (freckles):

cool
