    Two hundred thousand years. Incidentally, I've almost burned down my house several times. True story.

    So, scrabble then anyone?

    Sure. Except that I forget on which website it can be played...and which server we use.

    Doing some very rushed calculations in my head in a sleep depraved state, I got this:

    X + 2Y = -8

    Although there's a good chance that it's wrong.

    If I'm right (and I doubt this since it's been over 15 years since I made this) the solution is:

    y-x/2=-4

    Welp, you multiply both sides by 2.

    That gives you 2y + 4 = x - 4.

    Get your 4s on the same side.

    Then get the x on the same side as the y.

    Using this almost reinforces what I said, except that it's in fact:

    -X + 2Y = -8

    So I was close.

    Your answer is just as valid. Just as describing a line with a different parameterisation doesn't change the qualities of the line you are describing the same line.

    Well you could have just written it out as y - 0.5x = 4. Either way, they're both right.

    Well... mathematics is exact so... the correct equation for Ax+By=C is

    (-1/2)x+y=(-4)

    or something like that.

    Yes, but we won't stone you to death for it.

    You should be drinking hot cocoa and mulled cider.

    Oh wow! Thank you everyone! Also if you could find the equation that passes through the line (-2, -3) with an undefined slope...that'd be...rainbowtacular. I think it's either -3x+2y=0, or...something else. XD
    I'm also having trouble finding the value of r so that a line going through (-4, 8) and (r, -6) has a slope of 2/3rds.

    Gradient = up/across
    Your up in this case is -2, so your across has to be -3. In that case, r would be 5.

    Nah, the slope'll be positive, because -2, -3 is two into the II and III quadrants and three down into the third quadrant. In order to reach 0, the slope has to be positive.

    I'm also having trouble finding the value of r so that a line going through (-4, 8) and (r, -6) has a slope of 2/3rds.
    Sorry...
    Welp. That's a descent of 14 along the y axis. Slope notation means that for every two it goes over, it goes three up. (unless I've gotten that backwards). And if you've got a positive slope, that means r has to be negative...

    So... if I misremembered it as dogmantra suggests... up 2, over 3 means that 14/2 is the basic unit, so 7 * 3 will reveal the change in X. Which means there's a difference of 21 between -4 and r.

    A bit of a computer question here, but mostly a problem of "what should I do in this situation" moment.

    My computer is starting to suck outrageously, and I need to either upgrade several parts of it, or get a brand new one.

    Now, Christmas is coming up, and since I recently graduated from college, my parents have agreed that it would be alright to combine college and Christmas and get me a brand new computer, at the cost of considerably reducing my other Christmas presents.

    So now, should I get this? Or should I take a more present-filled Christmas and try to upgrade the old beast?

    I'm an idiot. I read your co-ordinates as (y,x) for some strange reason. Yeah, your up is -14. I'm pretty sure Coidy-woidy has it right. Curse you, Coidzor, you've foiled me again!
