Okay I have one more...it's harder!

Write the equation of the line through (2,3) and perpendicular to the like 5x + 3y = 22

first, y-int form to get slope of the first line.
3y=-5x+22

y=-5/3x+22/3

perpindicular would be opposite reciprical, soo

slope of new line = 3/5

point-slope

y-y=m(x-x)

y-3=3/5(x-2)

y-3=3/5x-6/5

y=3/5x-6/5+3

y=3/5x+9/5

Tada!

Wrong, the answer is 3x-5y=-9

I could do it, but I don't feel like it.

So if I ask you a question for Algebra II could you do it? It's Louisiana Education System approved, so it should be easy for you.

You either need better books or better teachers if they don't give you the resources to answer the problems.

Duh.

I went to a Canadian Private School.

I could legally teach in American High Schools.

You know how much money you'd make? You could actually teach proper French and such.
