hw #6-2 Solving Systems Using the Substitution Method
Mr.C, for now, could I just please graph the equations in the packet? I'm running a little late.. Instead of checking them on the online calculator, which I really don't know how to use..?
I'm confused on how to make equations for problems like #1 on Problem Set 6A.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how to form 2 equations, but only one.
I'll try watching the video tutors, too..
ReplyDelete*Cont.
ReplyDeleteLike in the problems such as "you earned $186. The t-shirts were 5 more that the sweatshits times 2."
For 6A #1 Which equation did you get?
ReplyDeleteI got 3x+5y=1875
ReplyDeleteOK good, that's actually the harder one.
ReplyDeletecan you write an equation to show the total number of fans in attendance?
Umm...
ReplyDelete531=x+y?
Yup... or better yet... x+y=531
ReplyDeleteSo now, those two equations form your pathetic little world... NO OTHER INFORMATION EXISTS.
You can graph them both, right? (Go ahead and do it)
Ok!
ReplyDeleteFor the money equation I got the slope -3/5, is that right? How would I try to graph that?
ReplyDeleteWhy not just use thumb cover up aka intercepts method???
ReplyDeleteForgot about that!!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for helping me, even so late :)
I got it! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, & I'll try my best on #5.
One last thing-- is the intersection of the lines the solution? For this type of problem?

We're not done with #1 yet... go to the mathchamber algebra home page and click on the NEW RED "math class" chat link
ReplyDeleteOk.. Going!
ReplyDeleteIs the chat not working?
ReplyDeleteIt kinda died on me... let's try one more time... just give me one minute... otherwise, we'll just give it a go in class tomorrow, ok?
ReplyDeleteOk, thank you!
