PLEASE HELP!!! WILL MEDAL AND FAN!!!
According to your given question, the point slope form is given as: \[y - f(x_1) = m (x - x_1)\]
Here, \(m\) is the slope, can you find the slope?
go eta go :P
Okay.. :)
okay so to find the slope we do y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 right? @eta
Yes, you are right Gurl.. :)
Okay and the ordered pairs will be (-1,2) and (-3,-5) right?
so basically the f(x) values are just the y values right?
Just Fantastic, you are intelligent than me.. :P
Go ahead, just do what you know, if wrong, I will tell you and correct you.
lol thanks, actually to be honest i can't believe i opened this question lol okay one sec =)
Ha ha ha.., Take your time, I am in no hurry..
well done my boy eta
Okay so the slope is 1.75
lol Danish
Boy, If you add your age twice, I will be somewhat smaller than that, you can approximate that. :P
lol.ok well done my uncle eta :P
Are you sure about Slope?
lol okay so the equation is going to be y - 2 = 1.75 (x - 3) right @eta =)
Yes i did it with a calculator
Doing with calculator does not guarantee that you are right. :P
lol ik let me double check =)
did you get a diff slope?
\[Slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{-5-2}{-3+1} = ??\]
I must get different slope and it is actually different. :P
Yea it's 3.5 =)
so it would be y - 2 = 3.5 (x - 3) ?
Good.. :) It is okay, you were right in opening up this question, otherwise, you will end up doing it wrong. :P
No, you missed it, why are you filling x values of second point and y value of first point?
lol yea i should know this it's just been a lil while so yea =) Thanks so much for the awesome help, just needed a refresher lol =)
what, huh?
Choose one point only, with only one point, you can write point slope form..
\[y - f(x_1) = m(x-x_1)\]
oh yea, right sorry lol so it would be y - 2 = 3.5 (x - 1) ?
Only one mistake you have done, if you can find it, you will gain Medal from me, otherwise not. you have two minutes, be quick..!!
LOL okay um, is it the (x+1) ?
instead of (x-1) it's a -1 so it should be (x+1) ?
Yes, it is.. I know people can do Ph.D if it is for Medals on OS. :P
lol yea you're probably right lol thanks so much =)
All Good now.. Any doubt anywhere?
nope thank you so much =)
