Math help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you determine the slope of relationship A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry im new to this stuff

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@nelsonjedi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know how to find slope? @kayt131

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope @atreyu6s3x6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well since you have the graph you simply count out the slope of each equation, slope= rise/run or y/x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um i dont understand...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay give me a sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so the red is the rise (y) and the blue is the run (x) so in this case our slope would be 3/1 or 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, so now what do i do after that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so that is an example, so lets do the first one, shall we?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, so we would find the slope on my question.. but we already did that... im confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes but you need to find which answers are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok um would c be correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think i did it wrong... im sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh its ok :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but ill see what i can do..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First find the slope of Relationship A. m=y2−y1x2−x1 Plug in the two points: m=6−32−1 Subtract: m=31 Simplify: m=3 So the slope of Relationship A is 3. Relationship B's slope is LESS than Relationship A's slope. So Relationship B's slope is less than 3..so which answers are correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c and b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i believe so :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem, haha good team work :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you think that if i need more help u can help me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure i could try lol i have about an hour, you need help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah i do its the same kind oh thing hold on a sec :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ugh wrong one hold on again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol THATS THE SAME ONE!!! jus kidding haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol ik sorry XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so whats the next problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just posted it... hold on ill do it again :D here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awe hell nah, thats too hard lol kidding give me a sec :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XD i know its hard thats why i asked lol just kidding

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so im guessing we find the slope, so y2-y1/x2-x1 pick two points..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait... what? sorry...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha lets use, (2,30.4) and (4,60.8) so we plug it in... 60.8-30.4/4-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 30.2/2 is our slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if we reduce it, we get 15.2, yes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, that makes sense

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so we are looking for ones greater than the slope we have so, which of the group have a greater slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

our slope is 15.2, which are greater than 15.2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooohhhh im so dumb XD.. c and d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol DDUUUHHH!!!! xP Yay!! you did it!! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay now i have to go get ice cream XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Bruhhh..... wheres my ice cream? HUH?!?! lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol u deserve ice cream too!!! theres always dairy queen!.... i have 3 more math questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

bring it on!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol i love ur attitiude about this... its too big of a screen... i have to send it in two parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol its all good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OH MAH GOD...... thats alot of math haha so find the slope of the graph (relationship A)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3/4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so our slope for relationship A is 3/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh damn you beat me to it lol but yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay!!! im getting it! lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now we must find the slope of each set of answers...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Uh oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so do you remember how to find the slope from two points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um is it ok if i say not really?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no... -_- haha kidding yea it took me a while to learn this crap haha so it is: y2-y1/x2-x1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok... lol i think its going to take me a life time to learn this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol nah itll take a while but youll get it dont worry, its easier when you have help :) so for the first set we have: 3-1.2/5-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try to solve it :) remember it has to stay a fraction so dont divide

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok give me a minute :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2/2.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope D: its fine.... so we subtract 3-1.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is our numerator, or also rise

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh ok i get it now! 1.8/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YYYEEEAAAA!!!!! *high five* :D lol ....... but thats correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*high five* :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

gotta make the noise dude, PPSSSHHH!!!! lol okay so try the next set, use: (2,1.4) (5,3.5) 3.5-1.4/5-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol you're funny! so its 2.1/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha yes!! good job! :D so next: (2,1.6) (5,4) 4-1.6/5-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.4/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you sure you need help? haha okay... last one: (4,2) (6,3) try setting it up... y2-y1/x2-x1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but yea thats right :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so would it be 4-2/6-3? i still need to work on setting it up lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it would be 3-2/6-4.... great try though :)|dw:1445907900748:dw|
