I need someone to explain this problem to me. http://gyazo.com/6ca7a04743e4afb5ed4aa434f90003b6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is there something specific you dont understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I had help with this problem a long time ago but I never really fully understood how the teach got the answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Take your two points from column A and connect them. Move right from the first point and down from the second. What do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you elaborate a little more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you have this printed out then draw a horizontal line from point 2,3 across the whole paper. Now draw a vertical from your second point, 4,6 across the whole paper. Where do they intersect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2,6)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That is one, yes. But given your choices you need to stay on the right hand side of your line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I still dont understand. ill just forget about it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You have the concept. You know the X axis runs across and Y axis runs up and down, correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, from your first point. Draw a horizontal line on the Y axis at 3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not on, intercepting the Y axis. Sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now from your second point draw a vertical line that intercepts your x axis at 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the coordinates where those lines intersect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(4,3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Exactly. So find (4,3) in column b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Letter B is (4,3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I get it now !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good, simple once you know it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem
