Can someone help me with Geometry?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure bud. Whats the problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah okay. Lemme see about the first one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright, so what do you know about the equation thus far? What are we doing with the numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright. That's fine. Let's see what we can do about this equation. Also, are you on a test or just doing some home work?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay. So first off. Do you know what a perpendicular line is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup correct. So we're looking for that kind of line to your two points listed above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, just looking around I found what we're trying to get here. |dw:1429223864602:dw|

OpenStudy (znappydooz):

The lines connect a (0, 0)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, no. The line actually passes through (3, -4) for the line. But I just wrote this to show an example of what it'd probably look like.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. We're going to need to write the first equation in Point Intercept form to get our answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, once you get it into the proper form to graph it; it's really easy after that to figure out the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But basically you don't have to graph but write the equation the fits for the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, you write with Slope intercept form to get the answer needed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, put that into Slope Intercept form Which is Y = mx + B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, it'd change into Y = 3x - 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That'll be a line on the graph for your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not that hard once you understand the basics right?

OpenStudy (znappydooz):

No sir :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That should be the answer their looking for. So good luck with your home work! :)

OpenStudy (znappydooz):

Thnx! I have one more, could you help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dunno if I could. I'm not the greatest at the maths. I just want to get on with my life you know? XD

OpenStudy (znappydooz):

Yis! I'll tag you, and see if you can help me :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, shoot the question. If I can't answer I'll get someone who can :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also, just post in a new question btw.
