plz help
will medal and fan!!
a. what do you think intercepts are? b. http://www.purplemath.com/modules/slope.htm c. http://www.purplemath.com/modules/strtlneq.htm
You can get the answers for b and c by applying the slope-intercept formula:\[y=mx+b\]b is the y-intercept, and m is the slope
it doesn't make sense honestly
Okay. Going back to a. Do you know what intercepts are?
The graph of the line?
Err, no. But close. Intercepts are where the graph of the line meets the x and y axes, which form x and y intercepts, respectively. http://www.icoachmath.com/math_dictionary/intercept.html
ooh ok, now what?
Well, based on that information... can you pick out what the intercepts are?
-8,6?
...uh, where did you get that? xD Have you looked at the link I posted for you about intercepts? It will help (:
I did lol but i will read it again
umm. -8,6.. thats what i got Again
Ok... what process did you go through to find that point(s?) o_e
Ok, yes, but that's not -8 lol and the intercepts are in form (x,0) and (0,y) for x and y intercepts, respectively
Omg -6 lol
so its -6,6?
Are those the x and y points? In that case it would be (-6,0) and (0,6), as previously mentioned. (-6,6) is not an intercept coordinate.
...Actually, you're one point off. That's -5. xD
oh wait what?!
If i look retarded to u i'm srry im rlly tryna understand this
|dw:1457980756566:dw|Sorry my -5 is really ugly xD Nah, I was really bad when I first learned this. Everyone learns at a different pace ^-^
