lol your picture is kinda funny :D kinda creepy too :D

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Some ordered pairs? Hmm

OpenStudy (gigi1103):

thanks!

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\large\rm y=−\frac13x+4\]This is the function?

OpenStudy (gigi1103):

yep!

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Notice that the fraction multiply x has a `three` in the denominator. So we'll be able to come up with some nice easy ordered pairs if we stick to x-values which are `multiplies of three`. Let's start with x=0, what y-value do you get?\[\large\rm y=−\frac13(0)+4\]

OpenStudy (gigi1103):

hm so do you want me to do the -1/3 +4 ant tell you what I get?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Yes, starting by multiplying -1/3 by 0.

OpenStudy (gigi1103):

doesn't that make it just 1/3?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

-1/3 times 0 = 1/3? No... :o

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Don't you remember what happens when you multiply by zero? 0_o

OpenStudy (gigi1103):

no not really I know the rules for integers
