Do you just need help with #3?

Shadow:

You would just need to replace y with f(x) then say that the function depicts an output for each input of x.

Shadow:

Your equation in slope intercept form is missing the x btw.

Nevey:

with -2/3? -2/3x?

Nevey:

yea only help with 3

Shadow:

\[y = -\frac{ 2 }{ 3 } + 490\] \[y = 489 \frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]

Shadow:

Yes you need the x

Nevey:

ok its that 3? ^

Shadow:

No. I was illustrating why your equation in #1 is incorrect. Without the x, it would be simplified to a straight line crossing the y axis at a perpendicular angle at y = 489 1/3

Nevey:

oh okie

Nevey:

does this look btr thn?

What is 'this'

Shadow:

Oh

Nevey:

lmao give me a sec to put the pic there XD

Shadow:

Yes, correct

Nevey:

ok lol

Nevey:

now part 3. ty for that btw.

Shadow:

Do you know how to put it into function notation?

Shadow:

I explained it briefly earlier.

Nevey:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Shadow You would just need to replace y with f(x) then say that the function depicts an output for each input of x. \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\)

Shadow:

Yes. So in this case y or f(x) is the # of wraps and x is the # of sandwiches. Do you see what's happening with this function?

Nevey:

yea

Shadow:

Since the # of wraps is alone on the left side, we can say that this function gives the # of wrap specials sold given the # of sandwich specials sold

Nevey:

ok

Nevey:

is this all i else need? i cant rly think of anything else to put if there is anymore .-.

Shadow:

No

Nevey:

sry i forgot to put the pic there .-.

Shadow:

I guess that's technically correct ._.

Nevey:

ok, can u help me out with the next part? i was told it was wrong by someone else .-.

Shadow:

bruh I didn't expect to use my brain this much on Christmas break

Shadow:

lol

Nevey:

actually, let me try to correct it with the new info and ok i will leave u be lol sry :) im not on christmas break just yet

Shadow:

I mean its np I can take a look. I am just being lazy.

Nevey:

oh okie lol give me a sec i just gotta take a screenshot

Nevey:

heres one :

the 1st is for a closer look .-.

Shadow:

It says to note the intercepts

Shadow:

In lines 2 and 3 on the left, just write the coordinates. A dot should appear.

Shadow:

I believe there is an option to label those coordinates as well.

Shadow:

That is the x and y intercepts.

Nevey:

so then it would be (-2/3,490)?

Shadow:

what

Shadow:

How'd you get that

Nevey:

bc the equation is y = -2/3x + 490 .-. and 2/3x has 'x' in it so i thought it would be the x coordinate, and since 490 is the only other number in there i thought it may be the y coordinate

Shadow:

-2/3 is as you said earlier, the slope.

Shadow:

It is not a coordinate nor part of one.

Shadow:

An intercept is the point in which a line crosses an axis, either the x or y one.

Shadow:

|dw:1545169457651:dw|

Shadow:

Those are intercepts, because they 'crossed' the y axis and the x axis

Shadow:

Those are the intercepts.

Shadow:

Because they 'crossed' the y and x axis.

Shadow:

The y intercept should have some value for y, and x should always be zero, as it is right on the y axis. For the x intercept, y should always be zero with some value for x, as it is on the 'ground' floor.

Shadow:

uh

Nevey:

nvm hold on i didnt read what u just said

Nevey:

oh, okie, then it would be (0,490) on the y-intercept, right? .-.

Nevey:

does this look correct..?
