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.

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…

multivariable calc is a blast.

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

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.

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.

edit:  
jeg, try this

>
> How to find the equation of a line given its slope and the coordinates of one point on it. How to find the equation of a line given the coordinates of two points on it.

it might help

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