@4everaddicted2anime

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

oh hi your already here

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

Do you know this stuff?

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

Yes. First we need to convert the equation into slope intercept form

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

Okay. How do i do slope intercept form

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

Here is the equation 2x-3y=6 First we need to get the y term to one side. To do this I'll add 3y to each side to get 2x=6+3y Now we have to get the y term by itself, so I'll subtract 6 from each side to get 2x-6=3y Now we have to get y alone(with no coeficient), so I'll divide everything by 3 to get\[y=\frac{ 2 }{ 3 }-2\]

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

okay

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

y=-2/3-2

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

Nevermind the last post that I deleted, it was wrong.

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

The slope of this perpendicular line will be the reciprical and opposite charge of the equation above

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

Using this new slope, we need to plug in the given coordinate to find the b value/y intercept

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

sorry i had to switch computers

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

It's okay

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

What is the reciprical and opposite of the slope of 2/3?

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

Opposite as in the charge(positive and negative)

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

whats a reciprical

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

A reciprocal is a fraction fipped. Ex. The reciprocal of 3/5 is 5/3

OpenStudy (4everaddicted2anime):

Knowing this, what is the reciprocal of 2/3?
