MHB Help with College Algebra Project

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a college algebra project requiring the identification of the domain and range of lines, along with creating equations for specific lines G, H, and I. The original poster seeks assistance after struggling to find help from peers. However, the forum's policy prohibits providing help on graded assignments to uphold academic integrity. Consequently, the moderator has closed the thread, emphasizing the importance of academic honesty. The original poster is encouraged to reach out privately to discuss the situation further.

This is a project that I have to do in my college algebra class. The attachment provides an example, but it also gives you a picture drawn on a graph. Each line is assigned a letter. The teacher wants us to find the domain and the range of each line. He also wants us to create an equation to represent the line. We have done all the equations except for G, H, & I. I just need help figuring out how to find the equations. I have literally asked everyone that I know, and no one has any idea of what to do for the project. Also, the last page has word problems. We need help with 1b and 1c. Also we need help with 2 and 3. Is there anyone who can help explain these problems for me?
Thanks.

It looks to me like this is a graded assignment. Our policy here at MHB is to not knowingly provide help with graded assignments. MHB rule #6 states:

Do not cheat. Teachers expect questions that form part of an assessment that contributes towards the final grade of a student to be the work of that student and not the work of others. For that reason, MHB policy is to not knowingly help with such questions. If a question presents in such a way as to suggest that it falls in this category, a Moderator will Close the thread (with an explanation as to why the thread was closed). The original poster can always send a pm to the Moderator to discuss the situation but if the Moderator is unconvinced, then the thread will remain closed. When a Moderator is certain that a particular member is attempting to cheat, that member will be banned and the offending thread removed. Where possible, the moderator will notify the institute at which the member studies and provide a copy of the thread. This may sound harsh but the fact is that MHB places a high premium on academic honesty and integrity.

As you can see, I am directed by our policy to close this thread. I encourage you to send me a PM to discuss this matter.

Best Regards,

Mark.
 
Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...
Is it possible to arrange six pencils such that each one touches the other five? If so, how? This is an adaption of a Martin Gardner puzzle only I changed it from cigarettes to pencils and left out the clues because PF folks don’t need clues. From the book “My Best Mathematical and Logic Puzzles”. Dover, 1994.
Thread 'Unit Circle Double Angle Derivations'
Here I made a terrible mistake of assuming this to be an equilateral triangle and set 2sinx=1 => x=pi/6. Although this did derive the double angle formulas it also led into a terrible mess trying to find all the combinations of sides. I must have been tired and just assumed 6x=180 and 2sinx=1. By that time, I was so mindset that I nearly scolded a person for even saying 90-x. I wonder if this is a case of biased observation that seeks to dis credit me like Jesus of Nazareth since in reality...
