OpenStudy (priyar):
do u know how to find slope?
OpenStudy (priyar):
in the graph u have 2 points..with that u can find the slope..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the slope is 6/9
OpenStudy (priyar):
no..check the numerator again

I keep getting y - 1 = (6/9)(x + 4) which is none of the answer choices >:(
OpenStudy (priyar):
\[\frac{ 3-(-1) }{ 1/2-(-4) }\]
OpenStudy (priyar):
what will u get on simplification

OpenStudy (priyar):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got 8/9 o-o
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@priyar ????
OpenStudy (priyar):
8/9 is correct..now u know the slope..so write in one-point and slope form
OpenStudy (priyar):
so.. what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think the answer is b

one point and slope form is nothing but what used the first time when u got slope=6/9
OpenStudy (priyar):
its (y-y1)=m(x-x1)
OpenStudy (priyar):
here (x1,y1) is any of the two points..choose any one and substitute ..
OpenStudy (priyar):
we will choose (-4,-1)
so we will get
(y-(-1))=8/9 (x-(-4))
simplify this..
OpenStudy (priyar):
@jinxhead20 can u do that?

yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry for being stupid. I hate math.
OpenStudy (priyar):
its ok..math is a nice subject..take your time to understand it..only if u understand you will enjoy it..
OpenStudy (priyar):
so..what do u get ? which option is it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
d....

no..check again remember -(-1) is +1
OpenStudy (priyar):
can u pls be a bit faster..
OpenStudy (priyar):
@jinxhead20 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok b! It is the only other answer with the 8/9 slope. IDK
OpenStudy (priyar):
you are correct! but u understood how the full eq came right?
