math help pls
@Hero @Shadow
What's the question?
I might be able to help if I can see the question
@Vocaloid
Well we have two points (0,-2) and (4,0) you can use the slope formula or just calculate rise/run visually from the graph
so (0-0) divided by 4 - -2?
Hm not quite Slope formula is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) where x1, y1 is the first point and x2,y2 is the second point So plugging them in we get (-2-0) / (0-4)
1/2
so A
Yup
In this case we have to estimate but it looks like it crosses (0,0) and (-1,-4) so same formula/reasoning as before
(0- -4) / (0- -1)
correct?
Oh wait I messed up one of the points >>
Should be (0,0) and (1,-4)
so (-4-0) / (0-1)
or (1-0)
If you use (0,0) as your x1y1 then (-4-0)/(1-0)
so its -4
D
Yup

thats one question just big answer choices lol
Basically it should be the lines slanting down from the top left to the bottom right (on mobile so can’t eeally draw this out rn)
so A and C?
Good
Slope formula again (be careful with order/signs)
(5-1) / (-2-1)
So you have to be consistent when you pick your x1,y1, etc. If you pick 5 to be your y2 and 1 to be your y1 then Your x2 should be 1 and your x1 should be -2
Making your denominator (1 - (-2)) not the other way around
Ohhh okay which is 4/3
Yes
or is it the other way around?
Hm other way around If you choose (0,-3) to be your x1,y1 then the numerator is 1 -(-3) And the denom is -4-0
ohh okay
Well we have two clear points (0,0) and (8,6) what would be the slope?
well (0-8) / (0-6)
correct?
it's y coordinates over x coordinates so (0-6) / (0-8)
3/4
so just B
almost now we have to consider the real-life significance of this graph if euros is on the x-axis and USD is on the y-axis then (8,6) would correspond to C or D?
like, since euros is on the x-axis, and 8 is the x-coordinate, then 8 euros = 6 dollars
C
correct?
yup so B+C are your sol'ns
basically find final minus initial balance, then divide by the # of months
30
B
good
similar logic as before, we identify two points on the graph (0,0) and (10,80) then find the slope
so (10-0) / ( 80-0)
y coordinates over x coordinates, remember so (80-0) / (10-0)
8
notice any pattern? going down the list of temperatures they are increasing by the same amount each time
by 3
So A
good
