Rational numbers
Numbers that can be written as fractions or decimals that end or repeat. Ex. 1/2, .45, etc.
Integers
Whole numbers and their opposites. -1, 1, -2, 2, 0 etc.
Whole numbers
0,1,2,3. Etc. no negatives, fractions, or decimals
Natural numbers
1,2,3,4 etc. also called counting numbers
Irrational numbers

Are the same
If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are
Opposite reciprocals Ex. 2/3 would be -3/2
What do you do:
Find an equation for a line through (2,4) and (-2,5) in slope intercept form
Start by finding the slope using y2-y1/x2-X1. Then set up a proportion using the slope and one point
