HELP I'LL GIVE MEDAL!
dang oki gotta break out my old binder for this oki so the first one is by graphing, so 1) solve each equation for y
do yk how to do that ?
well in any case, at least in the frst problem u dont hav to 2) Graph both lines on the same coordinate plane
to graph y = -x + 1, u use the slope and y-intercept, in this case the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is (0, 1)
u can plot those points and draw a line through them
so would it be y=mx+b?
that is what the question's form is rn yesh
where b is the y-intercept and m is the slope
ok
it should look sumthing like this
for the other equation, y = -1/4x - 2, it's the same case, u graph it as well
ok but how...
by using the slope and y intercept, remember the equation is in y=mx+b form, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
plot the y intercept point, which would b (0, -2)
and w/ the case of a negative fraction as ur slope, u simply go down however much the numerator (top number) is, and then to the right however much the denominator is
not quite, instead the points to put a line through r (0, -2), and (4, -3)
mhm ^^ so next, once u hav graphed those, would b 3) determine the solution from the graph the solution is the point where those two lines intersect
@makaylab tell me when chu think ya got it ^^
@midnitesunny ok!
ish been awhile so imma say the steps to figure out #2 just in case, 1) solve the equation for y if u need to (which u dont) 2) graph both lines on the same coordinate plane (using the slope and y-intercept from the equations) 3) determine the solution from the graph (the point of intersection between both lines)
ok i got it i just need the others now T-T
chu got #1 and #2 ? or just #1
1
oki so #2 we will refer bacc to ze steps ive previously mentioned
we skip the first step and so now we graph ze first of them equations
y = 3/5x + 8, where 3/5 ish the slope and 8 represents the y-intercept [ (0, 8) ]
