OpenStudy (dan815):

hi

OpenStudy (dan815):

6x + 4y = 8, can you tell me something about this equation

OpenStudy (routohan75):

Sorry hi. Um idk.

OpenStudy (routohan75):

It is weird lookin?

OpenStudy (dan815):

6x + 4y = 8 well so think about it like this you are taking 6 times the length in the x axis and 4 times the lengths in the y axis and their additions add up to 8

OpenStudy (dan815):

so you have an idea of how to pick you ratios for y and x

OpenStudy (dan815):

lets say u pick x to be 1 6(1)+4*(y)=8, what should y be to make this true

OpenStudy (routohan75):

2?

OpenStudy (dan815):

not quite

OpenStudy (dan815):

if y is 2 then 6*(1)+4*(2) =6+8=14 too high

OpenStudy (routohan75):

would it also be one?

OpenStudy (dan815):

6*(1)+4*(1) = 10

OpenStudy (dan815):

so still not it

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay so think about it term by term
