Name the property used when we multiply the number on the outside of the parenthesis by everything on the inside of the parenthesis.
Distributive property
Slope is defined as RISE over RUN. What does this mean?
The vertical change (change in Y values) over the horizontal change (change in x values).
What is the next step?
2(3x + 5)
2(3x) + 2(5)
-4(x + 3)
Step 1: -4(x) + 4(3)
Step 2: -4x + 12
Where did Joey make a mistake?
The mistake is in Step 1. They forgot to distribute the NEGATIVE. Should be: -4(x) + (-4)(3)
Find the slope of the points:
(3, -5) and (4, -2)
3
4x - 3(x+5) = 43
Step 1: 4x + 3x + 15 = 43
Step 2: 7x + 15= 43
Step 3: 7x = 28
Step 4: x = 4
What is the first incorrect step?
Step 1, forgot the NEGATIVE sign in front of the 3 when using Distributive Property
What is the slope of a horizontal line?
Zero
3(5x - 2)
15x - 6
15x – 9 = 2x – 5x + 15
Step 1: 15x – 9 = -3x + 15
Step 2: 12x – 9 = 15
Step 3: 12x = 24
Step 4: x = 2
What is the first incorrect step?
Step 2, you need to add 3x, not subtract.
What is the slope of a vertical line?
UNDEFINED!
5y + 5 = y + 7y – 8
Step 1 5y + 5 = 8y – 8
Step 2: -3y + 5 = -8
Step 3: -3y = 3
Step 4: y = -1
What is the first incorrect step?
Step 3, -8 minus 5 is -13, not 3.
On a graph, if I count DOWN 3 units, and RIGHT 2 units. What is my slope?
-3/2
