is there any answer choices? C:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes @ChantySquirrel1129** they're y = one thirdx + 3 y = -one third x + 3 y = 3 x + 2 y = - one thirdx + 2

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Alright, do you have a graphing calculator? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no ;-;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I might be able to find an online one though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Ok, plug in the answer choices and see which line would be perpendicular to the line in the picture, and go through point (3, 2) :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

give me a second

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

alright :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I checked it and it didn't work @ChantySquirrel1129** I think I did something wrong

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

What did you do wrong? Wait, tell me what you did first c:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just copied and pasted each choice into the left and none of them went through 3 and 2 at the same time

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Ok, hold on. I'm going to try it c:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hopefully when it came to the fractions, you typed in `(1/3)x + 3` (for choice A) ? or did you type it in another way?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, I didn't use parenthese, was I supposed to?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes or the calculator may think you're typing in \(\Large \frac{1}{3x} + 3\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, ok thanks
