OpenStudy (deadly_roses):

it wont let me open the document for some reason...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Better??

OpenStudy (deadly_roses):

so you need to figure out what exactly? like a percentage, or rate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Like the I need to find the equation in point-slope form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@pooja195

Nnesha (nnesha):

rose are you going to help or can i start ?? :=))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can start if you want

Nnesha (nnesha):

rose came here first don't want to jump in :=))

Nnesha (nnesha):

so i don't **

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yeah that's true

OpenStudy (deadly_roses):

no its ok you can start

Nnesha (nnesha):

anywz y=mx+b is a slope intercept form where m is slope and b is y-intercept `y-intercept` is a point where line intersect the y-axis in other words starting amount(time ) represent y-intercept

Nnesha (nnesha):

|dw:1445195734343:dw| what would be the y-intercept ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(0,300) so 300

Nnesha (nnesha):

perfect now pick two points on the line to find slope

Nnesha (nnesha):

two points should (x,y)(x,y) two order pair :=))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(450,0) and (0,300) ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then I think the slope is -2/3

Nnesha (nnesha):

nice \[\huge\rm \frac{ y_2 -y_1 }{ x_2 -x_1 }\] formula to find slope plug in x and y values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2/3

Nnesha (nnesha):

nice that's right :=))

Nnesha (nnesha):

you need `point slope ` form right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know what to put for y1 and x1

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[\huge\rm y -y_1 =m(x-x_1)\] m is slope

Nnesha (nnesha):

you can put any put that is `on the line `

Nnesha (nnesha):

(450,0) and (0,300) doesn't matter which one u pick

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh okay so y- 450= -2/3( x- 0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y- 0= -2/3( x- 450)

Nnesha (nnesha):

right :=))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's all right?

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes right good job :=)) keep it up!! :=)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you so much you're a life saver

Nnesha (nnesha):

aw np :=))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanky you!!!!

Nnesha (nnesha):

np btw tag aren't working atm they are working on this and same with direct masg so nexxt time to ask for help post the link in the math chat below :=)) good luck!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks for the info
