@OP
Distribute the fractions to their corresponding factors in parenthesis. Next FOIL the two parenthetical expressions. Subtract the 1/3 so the equation is equal to zero. At this point you can factor what you have or plug it in to the quadratic formula. Enjoy. Math rocks.

Find a grade 12 math textbook if you can.

I need a little more context. As in, how do you look at a graph and be able to tell the equation?

take an online course and make heavy use of this website- http://www.wolframalpha.com/

I'll look up a few things, and thanks for the site, it'll be useful to double check my work. I wish it would show steps so one would know where it went wrong in its calculations.

Thanks for the help

Hey bro, it's anon C. Somehow my shit for reset. Anyways, I don't post here often but if you have any questions I'll help you with anything I can. Just post it ITT.

@173,589 (Motherfuckin' !xHGARYoak6)
huh, it used to show every step along with the answer.

welp, im glad i got done with math before it stopped doing that

Yes. And the graphs are straight lines, no curves/logarithms.
I'd post a screenshot if I had one.

@previous (FuckAlms !vX8K53rFBI)
Straight lines as in completely vertical or completely horizontal are either y=some number or x=some number. Any horizontal line is of the y=some number variety and any vertical line is of the x=some number variety. This can be derived from the slope intercept form of graphing, which is y=mx+b. The "m" is generally the slope of the line and the "b" is where the line will cross the y-axis.

To determine an equation from a graph there are two approaches. If the line is completely vertical or horizontal and only crosses one axis then determine where it crosses and you have your answer of either y=a or x=b (depending on the line). For other linear examples you can use the slope intercept form as reference (y=mx+b). B will be where the line crosses the y-axis and m can be determined using the point-slope formula {(y-y1)/(x-x1) x cannot equal zero). To use the point slope pick two numbers where the line crosses the y-axis, subtract them and divide them by the difference of two numbers where the line crosses the x-axis. You then plug m and b into the y=mx+b formula and you have your answer.

You can check yourself by making a table, plugging in numbers for x and then getting an answer for y. After you have three or four coordinates, graph them and it should match the line from the original graph.

I hope that answered your question. If not let me know and I'll try to clear up any confusion I might have caused.
