Algebra: Slope 3

[TheSurvivor313]

when you want to substitute y and x you said use the points (2,-3) or(-4,5). pretend you where doing this problem in a test and they already gave you the slope. -4/3. and u wanted to solve for b. however you don't have any points to substitute in the equation since they already gave you the slope. how would u solve for b.

[gointosleep]

ur WIFE DOES WAAAAAAATT :P

[bigbadwolf3567]

how did he get -9/3 at 1:45

[jakelongg14]

@bigbadwolf3567 input x output y

[yesyes673]

@bigbadwolf3567 it`s a different way of writing -3

[kingplatoedwinkaku]

that line was hurendous... lol funny guy

[BlackAfricanBrother]

THAT WAS VERY UNACCEPTABLE HAHA

[theholywand11]

Does that mean i can substatue in any one i want of the 2 diffrent points or is it pasific? plz help

[kimpossible87]

@theholywand11 any other point that falls right on the line applies to this

[2laable]

this is great and love the humor but right now I need coffee or ?????

[88joeana]

thanks ;]

[freakygirl92]

ive never in my whole life understood and loved doin math until nw!!!

[colloredbrothers]

What is he doing with the operator signs?

how does it become b=1? He transports be whcih becomes negative so in my mind it should be -b=-1 does he multyply by -1? Does b have to be possitive is this some kind of rule....??

[millrice]

@colloredbrothers it's the same thing. he had 0= -1+b , solve for b, so you have 1=b , -1= -b is the same thing, although why you would want to solve for -b is beyond me.

[colloredbrothers]

@millrice thanks I understand its simpler than I thought.

[darkthunderex]

Dude u sound like a gamer and thats the only reason y ive been learning better from all these vids!!!!!

[Whatthefrognog97]

can u make a video for turning point slope form into slope intercept form , or better yet!- ANYONE got a link?

[feraligatr8]

"I joke but you don't realize that it's true" lol :)

[turboisken]

.....

-3=-8/3+b

-b=-8/3+3 (Transpose b and -3 hence b will become -b and 3 will become 3

b=8/3-3 (Multiply both sides by -1 to make b Postive)

b=8/3-9/3 (Simplify 3 to 9/3 to make it more simpler to subtract)

b=-1/3

yay,

[Narutodantsunade]

@turboisken

Can You Tell Me Where did We Get -9/3 ? i Mean How ? did you multiplyed the -3 by 3/3 ?

Thanx

[EmSingsMusic]

To @Andydrewww @Jokerk

-3 = -8/3 + B is equivalent to -3 minus -8/3 = b. -3 is converted into a fraction that is manageable by multiplying the numerator and denominator of -3/1 by 3(the denominator of -8/3)leaving you with the equation of -9/3 - -8/3 = b.

Hope this helps! :)

[darknessofkrish]

@EmSingsMusic so out of practice, this helped me too cause I got lost there, thanks xD

[Drumsolomashup]

Thank you sir. You make understanding this far easier than my college professor with a P.H.D. in Geometry. I never can quite grasp what she is on about, then I refer to your videos and it makes sense. Keep it up!

[SilverHaider]

This helps alot more than what my teacher teaches in class,i'd like to switch my math classes loll !!!

[Jokerk1d]

How is he getting -9/3? I understand multiplying 4/3 by x to get 8/3, then he just states three equals -9/3. i hope someone knows what im talking about and i might be retarded but i cant get past that, get everything except that. Need help plz answer me!!!!!!!!

[shahd88m]

@Jokerk1d it is because you have 8/3 as fraction. its just a way to make the solving process easier. So, simply because -3 is a whole number and 8/3 is a fraction you change -3 to a fraction as well, the fraction of -3 is -9/3 and that because -9/3 = -3.

[Jokerk1d]

@AndyDrewww If you find out cn u tell me aswell?

[MiichealCaiin]

y=mx+c. yay for einstein.

[ThePatricio522]

Thank you so much! We need more teachers like you in Argentina! This is the best use for internet! please keep doing this! Thank you again!

[dudex408]

we need more teacher like u in high school.

[dude58]

Salman, FTW!

[lovejonas95]

You are amazing! Thank you soooo much! I am forever grateful, keep making these videos many people appreciate it!

[dinterface]

you r the best :-)

[barbielicious30]

I love the videos there awesome. I was lost up until I came across your video thanks so much it is greatly appreciated!

I got lost towards the end. 0= - 1/2 (2) + b

how did it become a positive b - 1

0= ---- (2) + b 2

0=do you cross cancel both 2's and get -1+ b how did it become a positive 1 ?

[wondergirlsy]

@barbielicious30 yeah... can anyone tell me ? I lost on that part too

[Sendobren]

@barbielicious30 im a bit late, but i dont know what to do, so i'll answer you

0=-1 + b

-b=-1

both sides times -1

b=1

[barbielicious30]

i love it

[MsMst12]

He broke down the 3 into a fraction which equals 9/3

[tupizakk]

yo how did you find -3=-9/3 work

[computerdoctor16]

dude your vids are the best, keep up the good work cause we all need it lol

[gavbag1234]

Until the last step it was negative 8 over 3. Why did it then change to Positive 8 over 3 in the last step?

I'm really confused now.

[missLEBchik]

HERO :D

[Trmpt106]

lol...its cool how there are so many different ways to solve a math problem. I now know of 3 ways to solve a problem of this type and 2 are very similar.

[idster7]

@Trmpt106 which ways??

[anumehaxo07]

aaaaaaaarghh thisis tiring

[angle4everr]

thank u soo much ..u make learning fun!!!!!!!

[Smasher0404]

it's called the Corridinate Grid not the Corridinate Axis

[kikibarrios]

Who cares about how is called ?, the important thing is to understand how to use it.

[lk90jn65]

lol his first line

[skotoseme]

Woo hoo I totally got the right answer from the last video before starting this one! You rock!

[nash911]

You are doing an amazing job. And you are hilarious. I am really enjoying your videos. Keep it going. Cheers!

[vickiormindyb]

After about 8 times of watching this, and being helped by a guy who's a Computer Network Administrator for a living, I finally get the point--a little.

What do you mean when you say one can "attend a seminar?"

I'd really like to that.

[vickiormindyb]

My supervisor was surprised that I was doing Math on my break.

He said, "Since when do you like Math?"

I said, "Since I started taking this online training where the teacher actually believes I can do it."

Then I told him how most of my former Math teachers didn't believe I was capable.

By then, he was more interested in discussing the stock market and failed bailout, which I don't understand.

All I can say is I have no reason to worry about stocks, since I don't have any.

[joenike55]

There is a mistake at 1:43....It's supposed to be 1/3 not -1/3 .... because it's supposed to be -8/3 + 3 which equals 1/3. Just thought I'd clear things up.

[harshm2u]

Nay, there's no mistake in there. It IS negative one third. You can check the answer with other coordinates.

[Pikapoo1]

Did you make a mistake solving y=-4/3x+b? I got a different answer (b=72/3) and I did what you said to do in the last video...

[SsuperCrisstal]

woow first comment...it looks like I'm one of the few ppl that really wanted to check upon y=-4/3x+b :)))

thanks a lot k...demy you really helped me
