A student is at home doing his homework, and doesn't understand it.
This is aggravating I can't understand my homework!!! The equations are hard
His mom hears him yell and comes to see what's wrong.
Why are you in here screaming???
My homework is hard, do you think you could help me?
He explains his problem to his mom as his mom tries to comprehend.
Yes, what's the problem?
Ok so, if y=x-8 and y=-2x+1, what would be the solution?
As his mom tells him the steps, he manages to solve the problem.
First, follow your the steps of graphing. First, write equations in y-mx+b. Then, graph m and b and connect the dots. Last Identify the solution. Remember to graph b first!
After writing out the problem and finding m and b, he graphed the problem and connecting the points, he found the solution.
RIGHT!!!
I GOT IT!! The solution is (3,-5)
He then went to school and found out that his answer was correct and he followed all the steps correctly.
I used my graphing skills.
You did great on your homework!! What skills did you use
