Best of luck to every1 on Mon...judging by paper 1 we're gonna need it!

So.. 3x-2y+y=o would have a slope of 2/3 But I've got y-2x=0. So I re-arranged it to make 2x-y=0 (multiply across by a minus) so I had a slope of 1/2. But the slope is 2. So they took A as Y and B as X. Are you not able to multiply across by a minus in a tangent? Does that mess up its location completely?

PJelly wrote: » .... That's a much more sensible way to approach it, than "-B/A" Thank you too God these maths are so relaxing. After yesterday I'd almost forgotten what it feels like to get questions right. Paper 1 almost killed my spirit. Almost.
