yea we have a test tommrow and i thought i understood it but i looked at it tonight and was like wtf.
3x-2y=5 you graph this on an xy axis graph

i dont understand the purpose of this because like any number will work?

X Y

3 3
2 2 and graph those? or please explain.

i tried a search but i couldnt find anything so i turn to my homies.

let y = 0 and solve the equation. then let x = 0 and solve. plot these two points on the graph and then draw a line.

ok so
3x-0=5
x =1.6?

2y-0=5
y= 2.5

so you graph
(1.6 ,0)
(0, 2.5) thats not right i dont think

almost right..

3x-2y=5
3(0)-2y=5
0-2y=5

-2y=5
-2 -2

y=-2.5
x=0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3x-2(0)=5
3x=5
3 3
x=1.6
y=0

i<3wksk8, well done... Anyone care to explain multi-variable calculus or engineering statics equations to me? Shocked

-I failed my tests in each of those classes. I really should be making As in both of them, but it looks like I'm going to have to work at it to earn a B.

No man, it's all good, I'm doing fine in my classes, just need to study a little bit more. We are doing like divergence and curl of vector field equations (triple integral stuff). Haven't really sat down and tried to figure it out, just kinda winged on the test, wasn't really a good choice.
