Very very very VERY easy.

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Actually the only math I like.

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

oh ok :>

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Lets take it parts at a time. Part A: Do you know what an independent and dependent variable is?

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

i know what and independent variable is but not a dependent

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Well lets make an equation first it's easy for me to work here. y = 7x Would be your equation since there are no flat fees understand?

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

yes i understand

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

In the equation y = 7x where would your independent variable be?

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

y

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

oh i mean before Y

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

lel wut m8? I said independent not dependent.

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

hmmm

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

I dont really know m8

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Well usually the dependent variable is the variable that is isolated from the rest of the equation so that would be y and x would be your independent.

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

Well i knew it had to be Y but you said where would it be and i though saying were would another place to put a variable would be

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Don't over think things it will only get you more confused ;)

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Moving on. What do you have written so far?

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

Go right on ahead.

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

For B im really having trouble with :/

OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):

(ಥ﹏ಥ) i wish i was good at math like you (ಥ﹏ಥ)

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

I'm horrible at math m8 just good at certain things. (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■)

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

B is very easy. Just take a random number and plug it into the equation and solve.
