you can also put the 4 as 2^2
$((2x+1)^2+1)$
clonesolopros
$2^2(x+\frac{1}{2})^2 = (2(x+\frac{1}{2}))^2$
clonesolopros
it does doesnt it?
because I can put it into the arctan
and that will be my term
for u
everything is right up until you evaluated the integral at the last step
from this formula, your u is (2x+1) and your a is 1
oh so its just flipped?
the problem is the 1/(2x+1) out front
how do I know which is the u and which is a?
when you plug those into the formula, you should get 1/(1) * arctan((2x+1) / (1)) + C
the u is the thing that you're integrating with respect to
if you let u = 2x + 1
then du = 2dx, so this integral becomes 1/2 * 1/(u^2 + 1) du
then you know that the antiderivative of 1/(u^2 + 1) = arctan(u)
so your answer would be 1/2 arctan(2x + 1) + C
ahh
okay
where does the 1/2 come from though?
nevermind
I got it
lets go

I just want to verify that I'm understanding this correctly
is this a proper proof that the set is closed under addition?
I feel like I don't understand my own justification even if it's right lol
to verify that it's closed under addition, that'd be the same as verifying that f+g (where g is a member of the set) is also a member of the set for all g right?
@west pecan Has your question been resolved?
wait I think I have to add this to the end:
is this the right thought process? did I do it right?
In my humble opinion, you need to show that for every f, g satisfying f'(-1) = 3f'(2) and g'(-1) = 3g(2) and for all real number r, you have f + g and r*f in your set.
(Furthermore, I feel like you show nothing actually, you are simply writing what you want to show without explaining why this is true :/)
Yes, this is a lot better !
I still feel don't feel confident that there isn't a counterexample for g
Such as ? f and g play the same role here
(Actually, you also have to check that your set is not empty, by proving that the constant null function is in your set)
well it's assumed that it's on the interval (-4,4) so it can't be empty I think
oh yeah I'm just concerned about closure under addition rn
The set of integers is not empty, but if I define S the subset of the integers which are both odd and even, it will be empty
What do I want to say with this stupid example is that you still need to check that your set is not such an example too
oh wait you're saying I have to show that the set of differentiable real-valued functions on the interval (-4,4) such that that property holds isn't empty?
You have to keep in mind that both f and g are in your set. Does it help ?
Yes
oh
well f(x)=0 satisfies that property as one of the conditions for a subspace anyway
Absolutely
and then for scalar multiplication I wrote
But in order to have a complete proof, you need to mention it
yeah my question here was just about verifying the closure under addition
I feel confident with the other conditions
Okey, sorry
No problem

for n(c_n), should the lower bound not be 0? if not im not really sure how to do this
@limber willow Has your question been resolved?
Actually I just kept as is and and voided using c_0 does this work
I have one question
isnt $\frac{d}{dx}(x^n) = nx^{n-1}$
clonesolopros
yes but i multiplied by x
hence nx^n instead
but why
to express (nc_n) in terms of f(x)
btw do you know what is f(x)?
well its the function e^x
wait isnt c_n supposed to be the result?
wdym
i think it wants me to use c_n and c_0 to express (nc_n)
just cant find a use for c_0
like this?:$c_n = \frac{x^n}{n!}$
clonesolopros
NUT
NUT
but doesnt it tell you to find the sequence: $c_n$?
clonesolopros
well its the same thing
and is there a problem?
yea its not the same
its like saying: $\frac{n}{n^2}$ is not equal to $\frac{1}{n}$
clonesolopros
clonesolopros
$f(n) = \frac{x^n}{n!} =c_n$
clonesolopros
$n \cdot f(n) = \frac{x^n}{(n-1)!} = n\cdot c_n$

Im learning about cylindrical coordinates and I’m wondering if there id a reason that there is a z axis but no x or y axis or why whoever made the coordinate system chose to include z instead of x or y
Oh wait I’m dumb
It’s because the x and y axis are a part of the polar coordinate system?
yes, the x and y get converted to polar representation, and z is left alone
the choice of leaving z alone is kind of arbitrary
you can equally well do cylindrical coordinates with y and z converted to polar, or x and z convered to polar

Hi
it might be useful to notice the change of base formula
log_x(y) is the same as ln(y) / ln(x)
you can use that to rewrite log_p(a) as ln(a) / ln(p) and log_p(b) as ln(b) / ln(p)
now try using that same change of base formula for log_ab(p) and see if you get something that looks similar to your known information, perhaps by using some other log properties

i acquired the aos but im still stuck on the rest
The axis of symmetry passes through the vertex yes?
yeah so i'd have my first coordinate but i don't know where i'd go from there
If you have your x coordinate, how would you find your y coordinate
can you help me with geometry?
isnt there like a formula (i lost all my notes)

oh sorry
Look at your original equation
Its made up of x and y isnt it?
yeah
So cant you use that to find your y coordinate?
wait do i just plug it in
Lmao allg
i cant even think critically
okay let me just
figure that out
assignment aint takin it for some reason, i dont know where i messed up
because of the parentheses right
my bad man this is thekast thing i need to knock out then im hitting the hay
i got 8
Seems right
yeah assignment took it
oh BROTHER one last thing man
thatll be it
let me check if my tescher had a video for it (he didnt for this one)
okay yeah he didnt
this is like the last foreign concept and thatll be over

Hello I asked for help with this question over the weekend however I’m sort of confused.
This is what I was told.
Since I can’t use sine can I instead use cos?
Or is that also wrong?
Wait I figured it out, we have to use the cos function
Whether u use sine cosine or tangent is dependent on what values u were given and what u r trying to find
Using sine is incorrect in this case because that will help me find the value of RS and not ST.
Tan is out of the picture.
But cos helps me determine what the value of ST is.
Yeah.

Translation: Solve the following inequalities I am confused about question C, how do I factorize it properly like A and B
you need to learn to cook meth
math*
huh😭
It difficult to me despite me enjoying doing random calculation in games ;')
try completing the square
or maybe the quadratic formula
I did it where I do ac and the sum of b
but it gave me -3 and 2
well specifically -6 and -1
there aren't any real roots though
right?
ooh
my bad
yeah
quadratic formula should work here
that possess no conditions
the quadratic you mentioned has no restrictions and the quadratic formula has no restrictions
oh so aslong as there is a,b and c I could use the quadratic formula to find x?
(talking about complex number system)
sure you could
seems like something very important to rmber forever lol
so far I have -x + √-2x -24 / 12, if I were to do -24 - 2x it would be -26 but √26 is like 5.1, idk if normal or I am messing up somewhere
When $a\ne 0$

Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
Consider the relation R on the set of natural numbers greater than 10 defined by xRy if x^2 > y. Which properties does it satisfy?
mind translating the options?
symmetric, transitive, irreflexive, antisymmetric, reflexive
Any germans in here it is about stochastik and analytische Geometrie
bro open another channel please
!occupied
Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
it's not reflexive because x^2 is not greater than x^2
it's not symmetric because if x^2 > y then y is not greater than x^2
hence it is antisymmetric and antireflexive
and it is transitive because if x^2 > y and y > z then x^2 > z
whats wrong?

dont understand italian
i translated
ping me there

@marble bridge
thanks
now that i think it may be irreflexive:
the relation is irreflexive because it doesnt not have the property of reflexivity
@ocean hamlet
its not irreflexive
its marked wrong
wait what?
Any number squared is always greater than or equal to itself
so no element can be related to itself under this relation,and that makes it irreflexive

What have u tried
i dont know what goes inside the integral
i have the bounds though
outer integral is from 0 to 2π
inner integral from 0 to √theta
oh shit i forgot
Remember that a 2d integral is doing the volume under the surface
And the cross section * 1 (height) would be the volume
Which is also the cross section aka the area
so its not this
Huh

HALP
what do you know about the angles in a triangle?
they add up to 180
the thing is
x+59 and x+51 dont have te degree
so should I ignore the angle
?
that isn't really important it's assumed that they're degrees
and even then it would give me a - number
since the 84 is in degrees
Pro_Hecker
should be x + 51 not x + 41
but yeah
why not just solve the equation?
(x+59) + (x+51) + 84 = 180
yes
oh ok
x isn't your angle
then ye that was my question
also already solved
but how do u know which letter is which
i'm still having that thought
like is d the right angle
and be is both y-5 and 13?
because if u used y-5=13
y=18
then u plug it in
18-5=13
so since it shows on both sides
and it is congruent
fr?
thenwhat r the measurements for

so AD is 5x-5?
dc is x+12 or 5x-5?
ah
5x-5=x+12
so would u solve 5x-5=90?
since its a right triangle
and u r trying to solve for x
@mystic saffron Has your question been resolved?
isnt (5x-5) = 90?

just having personal wonders, does this formula work if I choose a number z=a+bi and then I want to take it to the (c+di) complex power like
z^(c+di)
it makes a lot of sense to me
but I may be wrong in some point
you basically start at z = r * e^iθ
z = r * e^iθ
r = sqrt(a^2+b^2)
so that's a real number and therefore you can turn it into e^ln(r)*e^2kπi
with any integeer k I guess
so that's how you get
(e^ln(r) * e^2kπi)^(c+di) * (e^iθ)^(c+di)
so then you do lots of distributive
pretty trivial
$e^{2k\pi i}$ is just 1
qwertytrewq
yes I know
ah but for c+di
usually ud just put it with theta
yes but theta is the one for the first complex
theta is the argument for z
and I turn |z| into polar coords to work with it as a power of e
which depends on branch cut, which would already determine your power without the need for a 2ki pi factor
yeah but that part is for r, r being |z|
im saying you don't need it for r. the brach cut fixes unique value of complex power
better put it should be (e^ln(r) )^(c+di) * (e^iθ* e^2kπi)^(c+di)
where e^i(theta+2kpi ) is determined by branch
so I just take e^2πki as 1
and then times e^ln(r) just the same thing
oh makes sense
as long as you specify your theta from specifying a branch
it should be good.
the branch is where you pick you 2kpi factor
everything else is defined around it
complex logarithm given branch gives you ln(z)=ln(|z|)+arg(z)
z^c= e^{cln(z)}
which is identical to your definition
a brach cut helps you determine what theta is
say if my number is i and our brach is (0,2pi]
Ah the branch is an interval of length 2pi
so log(i) would be pi/2
ya
qwertytrewq
so essentially it is making the argument function be in that range
so, you could imagine that your e^{2kpi} is chosen already by choosing the branch
ok but the theta for r would always be 0
cuz it's a real number
so I just take e^ln(r)(c+di)
which is r^c*e^ln(r)di
how do i put it, if you have r, given the same branch, then r^{c+di} might have a 2ki multiple
but, the angle 2kpi is added to the imaginary part of ln(specific number)
but r is the modulus of z
since you separated into reals and imaginary, you dont need to do it twice for real and imaginary
however, if you view r not as the modulus of z, rather as a complex number, there might be a 2kpi multiple
which is not what you did ofc, but useful to distinguish those
then r would have a modulus of r, and a extra angle (when taking log) of possibly 2kpi
sorta like that
yes
for z, the modulus is r (nothing needs to be done for the modulus, no angle needs to be added), and the argument is theta
👍 so is this clearer?
what's the conclusion then?
if you view r as the modulus of z, you dont need to add angles of 2kpi.
if you view r as a complex number, then r^(c+di) might have an argument of 2kpi.
wdym by might have an argument
simply put, a modulus does not have an argument, while a complex number does
by argument i mean arg(z)
the angle
it should be e^ln(r)(c+di)
isn't it the same?
pretty sure the 2kpi will affect c
for example (-1)^(1/2) could be i or -i
it does cuz I just had to add this
well idk about that one
wasn't the square root of a number always positive by convention?
"positivity" becomes meaningless in complex numbers
is -1+i more positive than 1-i?
so, thats why we do branch cut
which, if you do different kinds of branch cut, you will have all the possible solutions
it would be a weird generalization if we single out real number and force them to satisfy some positivity clause
ok I get it
so that said this would be incorrect
isn't 1^(1/4) all of those you listed?
yeah im just showing that your formula would only produce one outcome, that is 1
but not the other outcomes
wdym one outcome
i mean if you plug in r=1 here, and c+di=1/4+0i
you would get 1 on the right side no matter what branch you pick
oh cuz
e^ln(1) is 1
or
cuz d = 0
one of those I'm guessing
not sure which one
but you also have r^c
and isn't that like the 4 possible numbers
didn't you say that doesn't work cuz complex
T.T
if that is the case your formula didnt achieve anything, you just listed (1)^(1/4)=(1)^(1/4)
I should be studying algebra and not this
yes but what if you choose a diff complex
that's why I want the formula for
no, i thought u meant that r^c is powers in reals
r^c as powers in complex would yield different result
that's half of the formula I'm using
oki thx
yw
??
just joking
hehehehe
then in you original formula is |z|^c a real power or a complex power?
i was pretty sure it is real power
z^5
depends on c
ig
c is a real number though from your assumption
you are using e^ln|z|c =|z|^c
what you said
maybe? idk
note that the left hand side is always real
e^(real number) is real
so if you are not using real power the formula e^ln|z|c =|z|^c is wrong
because the left hand side is always real
but the right hand side could be complex
wait
Ah also forgot to mention that, e^z is defined without branch cut
but that's not the formula, you have to multiply by e^ln|z|di
on the left hand side of the image you posted there is a |z|^c
yes
it was derived from e^ln|z|c =|z|^c
I have to change that to e^ln(|z|c)?
you could just say its a real power
because |z|^c as power of real number does equal to e^ln(|z|)c
but like you see how I got to |z|^c right?
yeah
it works if you assume that you are doing exponentiation in reals
which is fine
you can't say that |z|^c is a complex power tho
I'm trying to get exponentiation in complexs
cuz in that case e^ln(|z|)c does not equal to |z|^c
however you have reduced it to exponentiation in the reals
BTW
$$z^{a+b}\neq z^az^b$$
qwertytrewq
for complex numbers
for z,a,b complex
wdym for a, b complex T.T
so, if your derivation is of complex powers, it would be wrong
im taking a and b as complex numbers
but like
if they're both complex you can add them
and get just another complex
ok makes sense tho
cuz
yeah yeah
i'm dumb
so like
it was all just my schizo
sad moment
I'll go back to studying
there is light tho
I'll bother another day with why this is true but for today, enough depression

Could someone help explain their approach to this question? I don't need an actual final solution since it's so tedious, I'm just curious as to how someone else might apporach to solve it
My orignal method was factor out 100, bring it out the integral, and integrate (10+t)e^(whatever), but left me with quite a long integration by parts process
this seems like something they'd seriously expect you to do with a calculator
especially since they talk about rounding to the nearest dollar
integrate e^(1-t/20), and t·e^(1-t/20)
man i hate this question
I just did it my original way, a seperate way where I split the (10+t) into the e^(whatever), so that I have an integral of 10e+te, and I can just evalaute them seperately
and both are different answers from the online calculator
$1000e\int_{0}^{20} \frac{1}{e^{t/20}}dt + 100e\int_{0}^{20} \frac{t}{e^{t/20}}dt$

If you're gonna contribute to these channels, then do so
If not then get out
Idk maybe
This has nothing to do with the topic of this channel
So leave
😵💫
doesn't this essentially come down to showing that A has both positive and negative eigenvalues?
Thanks for making this easy NotVoid
Oh wait he can't hear me
Because he's dead
Ripperoni pepperoni
bye bye whoever you were haha
imagine pinging moderators when the issue was directly with the moderators

I dont think so, the eigenvalues dont have to be negative.
I wanted him banned 🚫
Yeah Bungo keep in mind the ||x||^2 term in the denominator
but i dont know how to prove it without the Hesse matrix
That can cause some shenanigans
and i dont want to calculate the hesse matrix
because even one of the derivatives would take up over on line of my paper
Probably try to compute directional derivatives at v_2?
thats a bon idea actually
But at the other eigenvectors
oh hmm, good point
The intuition is that if you approach it along the eigenvector of the larger eigenvalue the function is probably going up
And along the smaller it's probably going down
hint: maybe use the fact that this matrix is symmetrical somehow.
(For reference I literally had to Google what a saddle point was so I might be royally talking out of my ass)
I think i needed this to show that the critical points are just the eigenvectors
(But this smells like a thing that might make sense)
i found this wierd too
its the first time i saw him anywhere outside #book-recommendations
Lol I popped in to handle a moderation matter

And was like you know what while I'm here this is more interesting than guiding middle schoolers through systems of two linear equations
Wait usually I live in #discussion lol
Mhhm but why does a positive and negative directional derivate imply a saddle point?
Apparently a saddle point means not a max or a min
i dont even go there thats why the only place i ever saw you was in #book-recommendations 
So I'm guessing that if you pick a direction and say f is going up
And if you pick another direction and say f is going down
That feels pretty saddle-y
oh you never use discussion
doesn't the derivative also have to be zero in order to qualify as a saddle point?
think f(x) = x^3 at x=0
that's why
🤷 again I might be making no sense at all since idk multivariable calculus
Yeah I mean among critical points
wait im stupid, i completely failed at imagining it, obv. your right
But I'm guessing proving that it's critical shouldn't be too hard
Overall the point is, you don't want to compute partial derivatives in xyz
But since A is symmetric
i already proved that only eigenvectors are critical points
Use an orthonornal eigenbasis
ah got it
yes thats the reason but you dont need to go to discussion to find this incident wierd 
That feels like the better way to go about life. Even if it boils down to computing the Hessian, compute it "in the eigenbasis"
(Probably)
(Maybe)
(Idk)
nah, your right, the directionals already do the job
hahaha

im not sure where to start with this surface integral
f is constant on the sphere, yes?
where do you see f(x,y,z) = g(x,y,z)
i mean f(x,y,z) = g(sqrt(x^2+y^2+z^2))
well what is the value of x^2 + y^2 + z^2 on the sphere?
4
2
certainly not
sqrt4 = 2?
-5
-5
yep
do i still need the sqrt of partials + 1
kind of convoluted but in the end it's simple
what do you mean
no, that's if you're parameterizing the sphere i believe
here it's simpler
you have $$\int_S (-5),dS$$
Bungo
Bungo
what is $\int_S dS$?
Bungo
no, that's not what the notation means
it means "integrate the surface area of the sphere, over the entire sphere"
the result is just the total surface area of the sphere
ik but how do you get the surface area if there is no bounds
there's a simple formula for the surface area of a sphere
4pir^2?
4
no..
2
for $\int_S dS$ the answer is $16\pi$
Bungo
you still have to multiply that by -5

This doesn't really look like it's in a "completely factored form", but it depends on what they're looking for.
For the complex one, what is i^2?
i^2 = -1
Indeed, so what is 1 + i^2?
0?
Yes
unsure
you got that 1 + i^2 = 0
so you got i^7 * 0
you said that here
so if i^7 is being multiplied by 0, can you know what that answer is without needing to know what i^7 is?

What does it mean by "The set is the line defined by the vector"
every point in that solution set is of the form r * (2, -1, 1)
(2, -1, 1) is a particular vector in R^3, you can imagine scaling this vector by r which would lengthen it, shrink it, flip it backwards, etc. and see that every vector in that space lies on a line that contains that vector
Very poorly worded for someone who should understand linear algebra enough to teach a. Course on it
that took me like 3 readings to understand
Well and it’s even worse because infinitely many vectors work as a solution
I'm sorry I didn't understand that, this has been kind of difficult for me
maybe it's autograded to take any vector on that span as an answer
The solution space is spanned by:
Provide a vector
It should say soemthing like that
does my explanation up here make sense?
every solution in the set is a scaled version of that vector (2, -1, 1)
you're scaling by some parameter r
when you scale a single vector by a parameter, it generates a line
for example, imagine you were in R^2 and the solution set was (r, r)
that's the same as r * (1,1)
every vector in the solution set is a scalar multiple of the vector (1,1)
if you can imagine the space containing all solutions of the form (r,r) and considering every possible value of r
this forms a diagonal line, you could think of this as y = x
so scaling a vector produces a line
in linear algebra, we say that that line is "spanned" by that vector
what im understanding so far is that the vector 2,-1,1 which were the parameters I found are like the borders for everything within the vector?
maybe not the borders, but every single vector in your solution set is some multiple of the vector (2,-1,1)
gotcha gotcha
so that solution set is spanned by the vector (2, -1, 1)
so I would just write the vector I put down in that box because the vector defines everything
and what your teacher very poorly worded for that last part is exactly asking for a vector that spans that space
Its an online course and im fighting out here to understand anything
thank you very much

im having difficulty with logic, on the third row of the truth table, how is it that the overall statement is true when M is false?
would M not have to be true in order for the entire statement to be true
$P \implies Q$ is always true whenever $P$ is false
Flappie
the only time when $P \implies Q$ is false, is whenever P is true but Q is false
Flappie
so does the truth value of P not matter if Q is true?
ok, so in this specific question, M is P and N is Q?
is P always the antecedent?
\begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}\hline
P & Q & $P\implies Q$\\hline
T & T & T\\hline
T & F & F\\hline
F & T & T\\hline
F & F & T\\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
Flappie
does the biconditional q supercede the p -> q conditional in any way?
P is the antecedent and Q is the consequent
wdym?
3rd row, Q is F and P is T yet the overall statement is T
(talking about the top table which is correct)
in the Q is F and P is T, and the statement is F
$P \implies Q$ is false but the overall statement is true even though it is biconditional
stwizzy
this line right?
yes i meant the compound statement on the right
what makes that T
because the consequent is F and the antecedent is T
you have M which is F, and n->m which is F, they are both false, so iff is true
A <-> B is true if (both A and B is true) or (both A and B is false)
\begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}\hline
P & Q & $P\iff Q$\\hline
T & T & T\\hline
T & F & F\\hline
F & T & F\\hline
F & F & T\\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
Flappie
\begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}\hline
P & Q & $P\wedge Q$\\hline
T & T & T\\hline
T & F & F\\hline
F & T & F\\hline
F & F & F\\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
Flappie
hope this helps
in this case n->m is A and (n->m)<->m is B?
m is B
yes sorry
ok i understand now, i was blurring the difference between the two statements

can anyone help me with understanding transformations or these problems
which equation do you want help on
can we start with 8
so the "a" value in this is 3, that represents how much the porabola is being stretched by
vertically right?
yup
if the a value is greater then 1 then it is being verticaly stretched
if less then 1 but greater then 0 such as 0.1-0.9 then it is being compressed
okay but how do i gragh that do i just put a dot at 3
no so basically this is vertex form so you are given the vertex which ius h,k
you h value here is 2 coming from the (x-2) and the k value is 4
(-2,4) is the vertex?
when in the bracket you flip the sign so if it was (x+2) then your vertex would be -2,4
a "-" symbol in the bracket means its a positive number on the graph and a "+" symbol means its a negative number on the graph its a bit weird
so your vertex here is 2,4
"h" which is 2 is your x value
thats your origin depending on which way the porabola opens which is determined by the a value being negative or positive (negative means opens down and has a max value and positive means opens up and has a min value
it opens down rihgt?
because its 3 which is positive
doesnt the a value determine whether it opens up or down
yes but positive means opens up
oh
4 which is your k value will be the y in the vertex
x=2, and y=4
thats our vertex
okay i understand that
yea i dont understand what does stretch mean
do you know the y values on the normal porabola
41014
a table for that would look like this
x|y
-2|4
-1|1
0|0
1|1
2|4
sorry its a bit messy
basically to transform your current equation into something like that you need to do certain things to the x/y values
for y
the equation is (a)y+k
so (3)y+4
and for x its x (+/- depending on what the h value is) h
so in our case thats x+2
so you plug the y value into that equation
for the first 4 that would look like (3)4+4
then (3)1+4
and so on
any questoins yet
ok.. kinda understanding it
ok so for our x values what do you think the equation would look like
our x value is 2 right?
yes
so to find your x value equatoin you have to know what the h value is
we klnow thats 2
okayy..
then because we know 2 is positive not negative it would be plsu 2
and x is easier in that sence as you only have to know that
then you plug in the x value on the chart into x+2
so for the first one thats -2+2
and so on
oh so -1 +2
yup
0+2 and more
correct
okay and using those points i then plug it into the gragh?
?
we only need one x and y chart for the equation
your teacher probably puts the origional one and the new one next to eahcother for you to see
x|y
-2|4
-1|1
0|0
1|1
2|4
this is the origional and then with what we went over you can make the new one
do you know if your teacher wants you to write out the transformations in word form?
such as translated 2 units right
ok
so for that we look at "a" "h" and "k"
you know how to find those values in an equation
yes
ok for 9 (a)
a determines the vertical stretch
correct
heres the equations
list all the transformations you know and well see if you miss any ok
or do you want me to go over them with you
ill try and tell u if im confused
sounds good
the relation has a vertical stretch by 1/2?
ohh okok
or BAFO if your teacher has said thats allowed just shorter
and its vertex is -4,7
i dont think he does so i wont for now
yes but for the translation do you know what to write
ok so just by a factor of
um not rlly..
ik how to do the charts things
