wait how is chain rule applied here? i thought i do power rule after that
you use the power rule to differentiate the outer function (the cube root) and formally the chain rule means you also need to multiply by the derivative of (x+4)
so in this case when i have (x+4)^1/3
chain rule says that i can use it if theres a function that i can derive inside a function?
but d/dx (x+4) is just 1
chain rule says that i can use it if theres a function that i can derive inside a function?
this wording is not good
yeh i confused sorry . 😅
english not my first langugage
can you correct my word? i tend to understand by words then seeing examples
if there are multiple functions inside one another ig
what is your first language?
filipino
viladimiro putinoooo

what?
anyway...
the chain rule tells you how to take the derivative of a composition of two functions,
assuming that you already know the derivatives of each one
i.e. the chain rule tells you how to get the derivative of f(g(x)) when you know f'(x) and g'(x)
this is much easier to phrase in symbols than in words
at best you can call f the "outer function" and g the "inner function"
“you crack the shell then the nut inside” 🤓🤓
?
i see this
i think of it this way
f = (x+4)^1/3
g = x+4
f' = 1/3(x+4)^-2/3
g' = 1
therefore
1/3(x+4)^-2/3 * 1
am i getting it right
?
wdym derive
differentiate
its called differentiation
sorry new to it
^ yeah english is dumb like that
you take the derivative, but the verb is to differentiate
I never fully understood the chain rule in that form lol
ok this make sense now
so when i differnetiate it
i get 1/3(x+4)^-2/3
and i can put it down in denominator and get
1/3cuberoot(x+4)^2
how do i use the type to image equation maker bot
$\frac{1}{3\left(\sqrt[3]{x+4}\right)^2}$ like this?
blahaquil
both $\frac{1}{3} (x+4)^{-2/3}$ and $\frac{1}{3(\sqrt[3]{x+4})^2}$ are correct
Ann
thiss
ohh okay thanks so much i get it now
t hank you guys
blessed day ❤️
some ppl think the second one is more simplified for a reason I will never understand!!
hahahah i just hate negative exponents taht why
fair

hello, i have a question about the fundamental theorem of abelian groups
every finite abelian group is isomorphic to the direct product of cyclic groups, each one with order the power of a prime number
and the primes dont need to be distinct
so Z4 should be isomorphic to Z2 x Z2
but gcd(2,2) is not 1, so thats not possible
what am i getting wrong?
here for example it writes Z4 x Z7 x Z5 as Z2 x Z2 x Z27 x Z5, but Z4 is not isomorphic to Z2 x Z2
similarly Z27 cannot be decomposed in Z3 x Z9 because gcd(3,9) is not 1
you are misunderstanding the theorem
Z4 is already a cyclic group with the power of a prime
yea but it says that the primes dont have to be distinct
and?
Z4 = Z4 is already such a decomposition
the fundamental theorem does not say that all such decompositions are isomorphic
okay, but why then is Z4 written as Z2 x Z2 in the pic?
no

Can someone explain to me why the 2x multiplied by the cosx+2xy is 2xcosx + 2x^2y and not 2xcosx + 4x^2y
someone seems to have fucked that part up
So it is 2xcosx +4x^2y?
appears that it should be, yes...

Can someone explain to me how we are finding these solutions
I found r =0 one and r=1 and r=-1
so there is 3 more solution I did not find
$r^4 - 1 = (r^2)^2 - 1$
riemann
use difference of squares again and factor some more
Can you elaborate please
which part
here please
riemann
r = a and x = 2 and y = 2
Yes ofc I got this haha
But ((r^2)^2)-1
then I rename r^2 as 'a'
so it becomes (a^2-1)
and use difference of squares

I’m not very great at exponents or logarithms, I need help on 2e^2x = 97
divide both sides by 2
ln both sides
divide by 2 again
Wait so divide by two to get e^2x = 48.5
And then shouldn’t I put it into a log equation?
wdym? e²x = 48.5??? plz write clearly (with LaTeX)
take ln both sides yeah
just put parenthesses where you mean to so you dont confuse ppl
e^(2x)=48.5
I don’t know how to use the commands
And I figured it out on my own with Google anyway

how should i go solving this problem
this is in my vector chapter of my textbook
what are u and v
whered you get the 2 eqaution from
It's given that xu +yv =44j
xu= 7xi+8xj
^
yv= 2yi-4yj
And rhs has 44j, thus i has the coefficient of zero
We'll compare the coefficients
so i would start by stating x(7i + 8j) + y(2i-4j) = 44j ?
yeah
and then from here i would put the i coords to 0 since they arent on the rhs?
right but how do i get 2 equations from this
so on comparing the coefficients of the coordinate you can make the eqns
Like this: (7x +8y)i + (8x-4y)j = 0i +44j

Can you solve it? 3 ln(x + 1) = -ln(2x - 1)
ln(y^x) but yea
I meant that yeah
Thank you, I understand.
So the eqn will become (x+1)^3 = (2x-1)^-1

can anyone tell me why is 2(wcsctheta) where w = mg is wrong
@ripe jacinth Has your question been resolved?
it should 0.5(w cosec tetha) right?
yea from the book
wdym? as in that's the correct answer or?
the correct formula for that
Yeah, you've made a small error in subjecting. the Tl and Tr are equal in this case so let them be both equal to T, then resolve upwards where T sin 0.5 + T sin 0.5 = w, so 2 T sin 0.5 = w and T = 1/2 * (w csc tetha)
in the last step you've multiplied RHS instead of divide
yea i multiplied it because i assumed T_total = T_left + T_right
and since T_total = T_left + T_right are the same i multiplied it by 2
ahh I see, small errors like this happen
tho i think in this part is where i got it wrong
what would be the correct approach after i have T_total = T_left + T_right where i have one of the side already
well that's not entirely correct, because you have to notice Tl and Tr are not on the same line (they are at an angle to each other) if you want to add them nicely you'd want to resolve them into one direction. in this example the best choice is upwards. so Tl upwards is Tl sin 0.5, and for Tr it would be Tr sin 0.5. now we can say T total upwards = Tr sin 0.5 + Tl sin 0.5, but we know Tr and Tl is equal! so we can say T total upwards = 2 Tr sin 0.5 = w (because w acts downards) and we end up with Tension along the rope = 1/2 * w * cosec 0.5. does this explanation help?
uh idk isn't tl upwards basically weight
When I say Tl and Tr I mean those drawn on the diagram and, tl and tr upwards is weight
e i still dont get where did i go wrong in T_total = T_left + T_right
can you send a screenshot or pic of your working?
sec
just do vector resolution gang
what's vector resolution
writing a vector in terms of two vectors in the plane
with which u can do calculation
easier
uh how would that help here
Btw they're asking you to find the tension, not the total tension so you just want to fins Tr or Tl
i would suggest learning vectors for classical mechanics

isn't the question the tension of the whole wire

How do i get x ?
Nothing
ok, let's start from the very basics then
what do you know about the angles in a triangle?
All 2gether is 180°
yes, their sum is 180°
now look at your diagram and in particular look at triangle ABC
do you see how two of its angles are known?
B is 90 and C 65?
yes
that's what the diagram says
so knowing that the angles in ABC have to add up to 180°
how much is the third angle (A)

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).

I'm a bit confused regarding functions
If we have a function how to tell if we can always go from a input to its output
it'd be easier if you had a specific function or problem
By definition you always can
That's what a function is
for anything in its domain
For example let's say we have a function which maps sets to 0 or 1, where it maps to 0 if the set is finite and 1 if it's infinite set
Here we have no way of going from input to output for sure
Cuz we can't count till infinity
Putting aside the huge set theoretic ramifications that has, you can define that for any set
Either a set is finite or infinite (once you specify what exactly that means)
Functions dont have to be computable
You can define it, but I'm asking where you can go from a input to an output, and if we can't how can we tell if we can't
But yeah, to be exact you cant have a function from the set of all sets
Yea so basically I'm asking this, how can we tell if a function is computable
because the set of all sets doesnt exist
Makes sense
But let's say from a set of all sets which doesn't include itself
To {0,1}
hm
that only makes the paradox worse ngl
How so
My question is really just this
Computable functions are the basic objects of study in computability theory. Computable functions are the formalized analogue of the intuitive notion of algorithms, in the sense that a function is computable if there exists an algorithm that can do the job of the function, i.e. given an input of the function domain it can return the correspondin...
computable in what sense exactly? Can you give an example?
(dw about the paradox, it's besides the point)
In that if we are given an input we can always find it's output
Exactly these functions
This is not computable for example
And to answer this, let that set be called A.
Does your set A of all sets which dont include themselves include A or not?
If it doesn't include it, then A is a set which doesnt include itself and thus should be included in A. But if it is included, then A must be a set which doesnt include itself and thus shouldnt be in A.
you may read it or not, its about the paradox, not about your question
If we were able to tell for any function if it's computable or not, math would be too simple
Hmm
Hmm
This makes sense
You can sometimes prove it or disprove it
Yea that I know
but there is not an easy algorithm to tell whether a given function is computable or not
Like for specific functions there's ways to tell if it's computable or non computable
Yea
Is this a fact
Is this for sure
It's actually quite easy to see that it's not computable, because there are statements that can't be proven (e.g. the continuum hypothesis)
consider the function from the set of statements to {0, 1} which maps it to 0 if false and 1 if true
wait actually that doesnt quite work...
Yea cuz we don't know what statements are true in the first place
So that function is I'll defined
Ill*
Hmm, wait
Then you can take the subset of all natural numbers such that "the continuum hypothesis is true", then it will either be 0 or infinite
It can't be computed
But that's just a non computable function right?
Cant we just say it's not computable and move on?
Well yeah that's what you asked for isn't it
Yeah, i meant provably true, not true
I'm asking if we can tell if a function is computable or not
If we are sure it's not computable then we can put it in the non computable basket and move on right?
Well then you can just do the same thing again
You can construct a function that's computable if the continuum hypothesis is true, and non-computable if it's false
Ohh
But such a function would be inherently non computable right
Not if the continuum hypothesis is true
Since that hypothesis's truth value is non computable
The continuum hypothes is either true or false, it's just impossible to say which one
So the function could be computable
Oh
So there exist functions
Which could be computable
But we can't actually ever tell
If they are
Makes sense
Also another question I had
Regarding functions
A functions domain
What does it mean for it to be ambiguous
Wdym?
Like I've seen functions with domains such that not all elements in the domain are being mapped
Such a thing exists right?
Technically no
The domain of a function f is defined as the set of elements such that f(x) exists
You can sometimes get functions that are defined on a subset of (e.g.) R
But then that subset would be the domain
oh you mean an into function?
No I'm talking about the domain not the co domain
Hmm
If you're talking about "can you compute that domain" then you have exactly the same problem as before
In mathematics, a partial function f from a set X to a set Y is a function from a subset S of X (possibly the whole X itself) to Y. The subset S, that is, the domain of f viewed as a function, is called the domain of definition or natural domain of f. If S equals X, that is, if f is defined on every element in X, then f is said to be a total fun...
I was thinking about these
Oh right
Ah okay yes, that's what I was just saying then
Makes sense
I guess I misread it
So domain is the exact set of elements which are mapped to the range
But this domain might be undefined
/ambiguous
But then you can still quite easily construct partial functions with noncomputable domains if that's what you're asking about
Yes exactly
Right
Something here is making me
A bit confused
Math tends to have that effect
We still have computable functions which are partial
Which means their domain is undefined
Dw about any of this too much yet though, it's the kind of thing that only starts mattering quite late into a uni degree
But given an element we can map to the corresponding element in the range
Ohh
No but I think I'm close to
Understanding it
I can give you an example if you want of this
Yes please
although the domain of a partial function definitely can be defined, for example it could be defined on the integers as a subset of the reals
Okay
If the continuum hypothesis is true, then there are no subsets of the real numbers with cardinality strictly between |Z| and |R| (if you know what that means, lmk if you don't)
If it's false, then there are subsets like that (of "intermediate cardinality")
No I am not sure what the continuum hypothesis is
Not sure is an understatement, I have no idea about it
If you take the set of all integers, it has size N, for some "infinite number" N
But I think I get what ur saying
So basically it's about the fact that we don't know if there's a intermediate infinity
Between the cardinality of reals and the cardinality of naturals
But like I said, this is completely irrelevant for most things so dw about it too much
Partial functions dont have undefined domain, they have a domain, they can be undefined at some points in their domain tho
So then you can define a constant function on all intermediate sets
Oh wait what
If a partial function is from X to Y and it's defined on a subset S of X
Then S is the domain right
Or is it X
I think different authors say different things on that
Oh, yeah, i used wrong words
anyway the domain is still there
it's not undefined
You would always have to specify what S is if you're defining a partial function
If you meant undefined as in unspecified, then yeah
Really?
really?
What's the difference
i dont think so
Well otherwise you haven't defined anything
i thought you meant undefined as in some thing that cant be defined
non-definable
Yea
That's what I thought
Even if you just specify it as "some set S" and leave it as a free variable
It still has to be specified
I feel we're all saying the same things with different words
pretty sure that there is even a theorem which says that we cant decide whether a given partial function is total or not
I mean the only thing we know about S is that it's a subset of some known set X
Yes it's undecidable
Other than that we have no info on it
But it's still defined
Right
Yeah, right, you can certainly define it
Okay let me give you an example of a partial function
f : R -> R
f takes any integer to itself, and is "undefined" on everything else
Then the domain, or domain of definition, of f is the integers
Perfectly defined
If f : A -> B is a partial function, you can always let S be the set of values such that f(x) exists
You can't always compute it, but it always exists
I see what u mean but isn't that circular, I mean u r defining S based on S itself
Because the definition of f(x) uses S
No how is it circular?
That depends on how you define functions lol
But I promise it's not circular
Ur defining S be such that f(x) exists, and f(x) is such that its domain is S
Two different sets that happen to be equal, ... Is the same set right
You're missing the point
f : N -> {0, 1}
f takes n to highest number in its collatz sequence
undefined if unbounded
Here S = set of all numbers whose collatz sequence is unbounded
Example of how its not circular
whenever f is definable, S is definable
I'm actually quite cooked here
What's the difference between undecidable and undefinable
If an equation is undecidable, that means that there is no algorithm to decide it
Undefinable has meant two different things so far in this conversation
Like can u say that the domain of the halting problem is "definable"
- it doesn't exist, and 2. it can't exist
Yes it's definable
I don't think domain is the right word, but you can quite easy define the set of all turing machines that halt
It exists by the axiom of specification
Ah
But if you have a turing machine T, there is no way in general of saying whether T is in that set or not
Makes sense
What about the domains complement
Ah makes a lot of sense actually but then
Why is it that HP is a partial function and not a total one
Oh okay
That's just a regular function
Every turing machine either halts or doesn't halt
Well, turing machines + inputs if you wanna define it like that, it doesn't matter at all
The turing machines still exist though
The halting problem machine itself will loop
The halting problem is undecidable, that's the whole point
There is no machine to decide the halting problem
uh that machine cant exist in the first place
It exists
looping means doesnt halt
which machine are you talking about?
this one?
The halting problem machine
The machine which takes in another turing machine and tells if it halts or not
this one doesnt exist
existence of this machine is an assumption
Wdym it doesn't exist
which later results in contradiction
The assumption is that the machine is decidable
/always halts
That leads to contradiction
But it's still a machine, but it's undecidable
"decidable"?
Turing machines always execute algorithms
Turing machines need not always halt
This machine let's call it H, does not always halt either, we assume it does, but that leads to contradiction
okay so you are actually talking about a machine which only tells if a given machine halts
Yes
yeah, okay
If the machine doesn't halt then it may say no or loop
yeah, alright then
so if it loops it doesnt halt
if it doesnt loop, it halts
whats the problem?
So my question originally was about defining the domain of the HP function
the domain would still be all the TMs together with their inputs
If you mean "domain" as in the set of all turing machines that this machine returns a value for, then you can just define that as a set
For some of the turing machines and input pairs it loops
yes, correct
loops meaning it doesnt halt
hence the function you were talking about would result in 0
So it doesn't map to anything in its range
what was the defn again then?
Not that it's strictly relevant, but just because a turing machine doesn't halt doesn't mean it loops
It would map to 0 if it correctly decides that the given input TM and input is looping, and halts
But it may not halt
What???
I think that you are looking at whether the functiion can be effectively computed, not at whether it can be definde
Kinda confused
halting can be considered as a type of instruction or sth like that iirc
not sure
But none of this matters for the set theory. if T is some machine, you can still always define the set {turing machines x | T(x) doesn't halt} and there's no problem
Effectively computable means computable right
if a turing machine is computing the decimal places of pi, then it just keeps going and never repeats for example
im not really talking in formal terms here, but say yes
if im not mistaken, then you think that the function shouldnt be defined at looping machines just because we have no way to know whether a looping machine will eventually halt or not
Oof that's a good point
Yea
Yeah, thats more like what computability means
It doesn't map to anything in its range right
it does
it maps to "No, it doesn't halt"
we just dont have a way to compute the function you've defined
Ahh
Makes a lot of sense
Still cooked on one thing
The halting problem function is partial function right
As you've defined it, sure
how have you defined it?
A function that maps from turing machine input pairs to whether the tm will halt on that input or not
No that's just a regular full function
yeah
Either it halts, or it doesn't
we just dont have a way to compute it for arbitrary value, its not computable
Right
So what's a good example of a partial recursive function
A function which is computable but partial function
In mathematical logic and computer science, a general recursive function, partial recursive function, or μ-recursive function is a partial function from natural numbers to natural numbers that is "computable" in an intuitive sense – as well as in a formal one. If the function is total, it is also called a total recursive function (sometimes shor...
Ah makes sense
So hp function isn't partial recursive, it's in fact not even computable?
That clears up a lot
recursive is a slightly broader term than the recursion in the programming sense
So recursively enumerable languages aren't computable?
Computable has to mean "decidable"?
not in general i think, but they can be
Wow that makes it even more confusing
It's basically semi-decidable
if the string is valid, you can tell that in finite time
if it's not, then you can tell it only sometimes
it can be decidable in the special case when "sometimes" becomes "always"
it cant be equal, the range is different from the range of most computable functions
I guess I'll do this on my own, thanks a lot guys @bold bear @vagrant oak !! U were a lot of help!

suppose $X$ is a continuous RV, and its CDF $F_X$ be NOT strictly monotonically increasing, what is the distribution of $Y = F_X(X)$?
frosst
i cant figure out where the flat bits go
normally if F_X is strictly monotonic then its inverse is nicely defined
but when there are flat bits where do they go
cdf(y) = P(F_x(X) < y), so as long as the set of values for which your F_x is "flat" is of measure 0 it should work i think?
is measure 0?
can't it be just a flat line midway through
im imagining a cdf like this
0, x < 0
x, 0 ≤ x < 0.5
0.5, 0.5 ≤ x < 1
x-0.5, 1 ≤ x < 1.5
1, x ≥ 1.5
yea so you have finite number of values that are "flat"
0, 0.5, 1
so it's measure 0
my point is that this doesn't require the function to be invertible, because if you take an "inverse" with discontinuities wherever you'd have a vertical line, it will still be integrable
as long as it has discontinuities in measure 0 set of points
ohh
ok and what happens when i have more
oh
it becomes not continuous probably
i think that's what happens
you'd need more than countably many flat bits
which i feel like will mean that you start losing continuity
you don't need continuity
you can show there are countably many flat bits because you can map all the flat bits to QxQ by mapping to rational endpoints of a smaller interval
Can I not construct a monotonic function with uncountable many flat bits
assuming you mean an interval [a,b] where the function is flat, no
I can’t?
this was my construction of a injection** from all flat bits to QxQ which is countable
I don’t get it
What do you mean by mapping to rational endpoints of a smaller interval
take [a, b] choose any 2 rational points p, q such that a < p < q < b
map [a, b] to {p,q}
consider the function from all flat bits to QxQ
this will be injective
you can also look at this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discontinuities_of_monotone_functions
if you take just the flat bits, it will still be monotone so it cannot have uncountable number of jumps

Been stuck for a longg time on this need some help if possible
college stats btw
found lower/upper half of data then subtracted for iqr
cutoff i just plugged into formula
,w Quartiles[{193, 192, 191, 189, 185, 185, 183, 182, 182, 180, 179, 178, 177, 175, 173, 173, 170, 163}]
,calc 351/2
Result:
175.5
you may want to try R
just a suggestion
can save you some pondering when something goes wrong
IDK im dumb
wdym
its a statistics programming language
yea
i believe the command summary prints all the answers to this question
helpful for checking your work
not really sure how R works but thanks for the suggestion. for this one though did the wolframalpha give a answer?
i see the 175.5 thing
it gave you the quartiles
if your work for the others was right, then you can just use these correct quartiles to correct your other work
175.5 was also wrong though
for the third quartile? haven't checked it
163, 170, 173, 173, 175, 177, 178, 179, 180, 182, 182, 182, 183, 185, 185, 188, 189, 191, 192, 193
I think you mistyped a 189 twice?
,w Quartiles[{193, 192, 191, 189, 185, 185, 183, 182, 182, 180, 179, 178, 177, 175, 173, 173, 170, 163}]
removed one of the 189
,w Quartiles[{163, 170, 173, 173, 175, 177, 178, 179, 180, 182, 182, 182, 183, 185, 185, 188, 189, 191, 192, 193}]

why is not 156
look at the diagram
also how did you reach that conclusion
linear pair and that arcs are double the angle
not sure about that last part
what formula did you use
its not a formula?
180-102=78 78x2=156
it's not an inscribed angle
ok now what
so there is a theorem/formula for this
ok
2*(180-102)=95+y
61
good job
and what is the threoem claled?
"intersecting secants theorem"
hep this one 
Then if you add the angle with value x to that angle you have supplementary angles

just do the supplementary thing again lol
2(180-x)=30+(2x-30)
is there a reason why you always multiply the angle in the circle - 180 then times 2?
to get the form that the theorem states

hello i need help
hey u there?
you can now use the formula Area = ab sin C /2
how
alternatively, if you’re not allowed to use it, you can calculate a height of the triangle and then use Area = bh/2
i dont have 2 sides
using trig ratios
Do you know the Sine Law?
calculate any other side of ABD
i only have all the sides for triangle cdb
you mean angles?
yes
you have one side and all three angles in BCD
angle
yes
wht do i do with it
or really just one would already be enough
.
Yoo can someone help me to do some Calculation please
Please use another help channel, like #help-27 ; this one is occupied
Oh ok
i did x= 5.6/sin34 times sin121
which gave me 8.6
then i did 0.5 x 8.6 x 5.6 x sin25
i got 10.17
is that it?
so that’s BC then
like this
oh you’re supposed to use the angle between the sides, so it’s wrong
wdm
it should be sin 121
so .5 x 8.6 x 6.6 x sin121?
oh whoops I read it wrong
this should be right

hello, if we have two groups G and H, and L is a subgroup of G x H, then is it true that L must be of the form L = G' x H', where G' and H' are subgroups of G and H respectively?
i'm asked to draw the subgroup lattices of these and i dont know if there's a "rule" on how to find subgroups of direct products
$\brc{(g,g):g\in G}$ is a subgroup of $G\times G$ but not the product of subgroups

For:
x ≠ -c, Solve:
x^2 - ax + cx - bx - ac - bc = 0
tried quad formula/factorization?
I'm guessing you'd first simplify this to make it a proper quadratic equation, then start from there
I did with quad formula but i want to do it with factorization
it turned into a rational solution or irrational?
if rational we can factor it
if not we cant
It wasnt with numbers
So we prob can factorise it
what?
For x i got a+b and -c
did any of the letters have a root under them in the final answer or no
No
ok then its factorable
Yeah but how do i do that
group the x-terms and constant terms first
getting there!
Ok so x^2 + x(a + c - b) -c(a + b)
hint: ||get a form with (x+c) in all of the terms||
yeah i will backtrack
this is the way i think
since x=-c is a root
But we need to find the other one
How am i supposed to do that
there is a c in at least one term of every "grouping"
pair the c's up with each other
Maybe x² +x(-a + c -b) -c(a + b) = 0
Not in x^2 though
trust me bro im cooking
If you rearrange the terms you'll see a pattern easier, using which you can group them:
x^2 - ax + cx - bx - ac - bc = 0
x^2 - ax - bx + cx - ac - bc = 0 (Rearranged)
||x(x - a - b) + c(x - a - b) = 0||
||(x + c)(x - a - b) = 0||
bro just cannot hold it in 😭
what is hard about guiding
I told him to rearrage + I responsibly hid the solution.
Just trying my best to explain
well, you will see once you group it
Ohhhh
in a sense, "match" the terms containing b, c, and the lone x^2 term with the cx term (this produces (x+c) regardless)

i don't see no "explaining"
i see a sentence we already covered and full math after that
no words
Ok man
Ahaha dw
I prob have other equations
In my hw
Lemme check
k
nah i dont
I did the rest of them
Im proud of myself
Do i close this now?

how can I know horizontal translations
i usually look at point 0,1
but this graph is harde
translation from what exactly
could you put some brackets in there please
when u put x=0
is is a^x - h
if u check for x=0 a is 1 right?
so 1-h should be 2
ohhh
hm
yes
@pure kayak
so u dont know neither a nor h
