Wow I suck at math...

yeah so i haven’t taken math in a long time and now I remember why. it just doesn’t click with me. someone can explain it to me 50 times in differant ways and I will still not understand this shit…and its BASIC! I am in elementary algibra and I cant figure out y= 3x-2 on a graph lmfao. I need alcohal.

starting at +3 on the x line, go down -2 on the y line, go over three, than go down two more, at each point put a dot and connect them, viola!

you have now plotted a line

Edit: unless im wrong and than i suck at life hardcore

ummm

-2 is the y intercept, where it crosses the y axis, and 3 is the slope (rise over run) so go up 3 and over 1…

at least you had your english skills to pull you through the SATs :gotme:

multivariable calc is a blast.

Actually, I’m not sure why I ever stopped at calc 2. I’m really enjoying calc 3.

thats just mean

the formula is y=mx+b

lol…

Pfftttt… you all are wrong. The answer is 42.

just buy a graphing calculator and ur done

math is mad easy

.

yes, because you’re allowed to use those so often in college.

math is fun because when you get a problem right…then check it…and find out your right… it feels sooooooooooo good. i can’t explain it.

um i use it everyday we are suppose to

Yeah but that rarly happens with me lol. I don’t know why but it just isnt clicking with me. most of the time I pick up on this shit fairy easily, and dont have too hard of a time with it. But for some reason this graphing shit is really kicking my ass. I feel even stupider than before lol.

:rofl:

im in stat lab right now and i hate it

i dont even need to take stat but for some reason i still decide to

in all 3 of my calc classes we used them.

and its a point slope formula, and its not calc. i think it was like math 2 or some crap.

a little OT, does anyone else keep their old math text books in the bathroom next to the porn and car mags? :slight_smile:
