Given Solution: * * STUDENT SOLUTION: (-3,2) slope 4/3. Move 3 units in the x direction, 4 in the y direction to get ((-3+3), (2+4)), which simplifies to (0,6) (-3,2) slope 4/3 = -4/-3 so move -3 units in the x direction and -4 in the y direction to get ((-3-3), (2-4)) which simplifies to (-6,-2) From (0,6) with slope 4/3 we move 4 units in the y direction and 3 in the x direction to get ((0+3), (6+4)), which simplifies to (3,10). The three points I obtained are (-6,-2), (0,6), (3,10). * 2.3.40 / 36 (was 2.3.30). Line thru (-1,1) and (2,2) **** Give the equation of the line and explain how you found the equation. YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Your solution: y - y1 = m (x - x1) y-1=1/3(x+1) y = 1/3 x + 4/3 Confidence Assessment: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: * * STUDENT SOLUTION: The slope is m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (2-1)/(2- -1) = 1/3. Point-slope form gives us y - y1 = m (x - x1); using m = 1/3 and (x1, y1) = (-1, 1) we get y-1=1/3(x+1), which can be solved for y to obtain y = 1/3 x + 4/3. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): Self-critique Rating: ********************************************* Question: * 2.3.54 / 46 (was 2.3.40). x-int -4, y-int 4 * * ** What is the equation of the line through the given points and how did you find the equation? YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Your solution: Y= mx + b so 1x+4 so y=x+4 Confidence Assessment: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: * * STUDENT SOLUTION: The two points are (0, 4) and (4, 0). The slope is therefore m=rise / run = (4-0)/(0+4) = 1. The slope-intercept form is therefore y = m x + b = 1 x + 4, simplifying to y=x+4. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): Self-critique Rating: ********************************************* Question: * 2.3.76 / 56 (was 2.4.48). y = 2x + 1/2. **** What are the slope and the y-intercept of your line and how did you find them? YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Your solution: y = 2 (0) + 1/2 or y = 1/2. So the y-intercept is (0, 1/2) so a slope of 2 Confidence Assessment: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: * * the y intercept occurs where x = 0, which happens when y = 2 (0) + 1/2 or y = 1/2. So the y-intercept is (0, 1/2). The slope is m = 2.** &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): Self-critique Rating: ********************************************* Question: * 2.3.62 / 22 (was 2.4.18) Parallel to x - 2 y = -5 containing (0,0) **** Give your equation for the requested line and explain how you obtained it. YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Your solution: Solve for y giving y = 1/2 x + 5/2 with slope of ½. Point slope form gives y=1/2x Confidence Assessment: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: * * The equation x - 2y = -5 can be solved for y to give us y = 1/2 x + 5/2. A line parallel to this will therefore have slope 1/2. Point-slope form gives us y - 0 = 1/2 * (x - 0) or just y = 1/2 x. ** &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): Self-critique Rating: ********************************************* Question: * 2.3.68 / 28 (was 2.4.24) Perpendicular to x - 2 y = -5 containing (0,4) **** Give your equation for the requested line and explain how you obtained it. YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Your solution: Solve for y giving y=1/2x + 5/2 with slope ½. Line perpendicular = slope of -2 so y=-2+4 Confidence Assessment: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: * * The equation x - 2y = -5 can be solved for y to give us y = 1/2 x + 5/2. A line perpendicular to this will therefore have slope -2/1 = -2. Point-slope form gives us y - 4 = -2 * (x - 0) or y = -2 x + 4. **
