do yk how do do it?
Give me a minute
ok
To find the coordinates of point R, we would need to first find the coordinates of Q using point P and the gradient of PQ, and then use the coordinates of Q and the gradient of QR to find R. Let's tackle this step by step.
-
Find the coordinates of Q:
Given that P is at (-6, -2) and the gradient (slope) of PQ is 3/2, we know that the relationship between the rise and run (change in y over change in x) is 3/2. Since Q is on the positive side of the y-axis, its x-coordinate is 0.Now, we need to use the slope to find the y-coordinate of Q. Starting from P:
Change in y = m * Change in x
= (3/2) * (0 - (-6))
= (3/2) * 6
= 9Since we're moving from point P to Q and P has a y-coordinate of -2, we need to add this change to P's y-coordinate:
y-coordinate of Q = y-coordinate of P + change in y
= -2 + 9
= 7Therefore, Q is at (0, 7).

Find the coordinates of R:
Now that we have the coordinates for Q, we can find R. Since R is on the positive side of the x-axis, its y-coordinate is 0. The slope (gradient) from Q to R is given as -3/4.Starting from Q (which is at (0, 7)), we look for the point R such that the slope QR is -3/4. Since the slope is negative and R's y-coordinate must be 0, we will move down along the y-axis and to the right along the x-axis to reach R.
We have the change in y from Q to R:
Change in y = y-coordinate of Q - y-coordinate of R
= 7 - 0
= 7So, for a change in y of 7 (downwards), we need to find the change in x that results in a slope of -3/4:
Slope QR = change in y / change in x
-3/4 = 7 / change in xSolving for change in x:
change in x = 7 / (-3/4)
= 7 * (-4/3)
= -28/3Since the slope from Q to R is negative, the negative value for change in x indicates movement to the right along the x-axis.
Finally, adding this change in x to the x-coordinate of Q:
x-coordinate of R = x-coordinate of Q + change in x
= 0 + (-28/3)
= -28/3Therefore, R is at (-28/3, 0), which simplifies to approximately (-9.33, 0).

Bruv what
what
Please don't use ChatGPT to help people.
Why not?
Does it give faulty answers?
Yes, sometimes it does.
Alright sure
The answer isn’t negative
It’s positive 28/3
Bro what did gpt do 💀
Please never follow that process
sorry havnt been on this for a while but thanks
@steel silo has given 1 rep to @keen furnace
@cursive ravine chat gpt
ok what do u want me tod o
Huh, what?
He asked a moderator to warn me about using Chatgpt when we've already had that discussion
I can't even remember how long ago that was
Because I'm not a member of staff.
Even if you're not, I've already been notified not to use ChatGPT
Usually that warrants an official warn.
Seriously?
You too
Whatever, if that makes you guys feel better at the end of the day even though that was like 2 weeks old and nobody cares about it anymore
Yes, I already knew that sherlock
🤓
Tell you what, a couple of months from now I'm gonna forget this rule
get verbally warned or get verbally abused
can you remind me again?
Alright, I think we've resolved this, we can stop discussing this.
: Yeah so I prompt an ai to generate answers which I post on discord to help people
@sand path Speaking of which, you should probably warn Hitler about the holocaust too
:D
bro they can do it themselves if they want to and ai gets it wrong a lot
I did
Yeah, and someone told me about it, and I agreed not to use it again
I got warned for it the first time I joined the server
Ok, seriously, I think that's enough.
I said that to follow up with this comment
I think everyone's got the point.
no you
Can you stop?
ok I'll stop
