so to pass an algebra state test you should study algebra

night gate
#

on a serious note tho what does your algebra state test cover ? Is it all of algebra or just algebra 1 or 2 ?

cobalt inlet
#

Algebra 1

night gate
#

Do you know what exactly it covers of Algebra 1

#

is it cummulative ?

cobalt inlet
#

I don't even know what cummulative means 😭

night gate
#

means covering everytopic that has been shown in algebra 1

#

not just the most recents

cobalt inlet
#

and you need to pass it to graduate

cobalt inlet
night gate
#

alr one second im trying to see if i can find a practice exam thats like the ohio test

night gate
#

Thats the algebra 1 state exam practice test

night gate
#

id recomment going through it and just asking questions when you need help

#

click on take a practice test

cobalt inlet

#

Just show that it’s not injective and surjective

cobalt inlet
#

huh

night gate
rose cypress
#

Wait sorry, show it’s not surjective yet

#

Here’s example

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
night gate
#

ok so do you know what a function is ?

cobalt inlet
#

Something that follows a pattern

rose cypress
night gate
#

yeah kinda and the notation for it is f(x) g(x) stuff like that

cobalt inlet
#

so the (x) is a number

rose cypress
#

It’s an input

#

Well yes it’s a number in some cases

night gate
#

so what axkyn was saying with the diagram is that when something is a function it maps onto a unique output

cobalt inlet
#

SIMPLER WORDS GUYS 😭

rose cypress
night gate
#

You see when i change the value of x the output is always a different number

#

when i put 1 i get 4

#

when i put 2 i get 6

cobalt inlet
#

yeah

night gate
#

3 i get 10

#

thats what a function is remember that for every X there is a unique Y

cobalt inlet
#

how do I make fx a function tho

rose cypress
night gate
#

he doesnt need that

cobalt inlet
#

SHE

night gate
#

he can learn a good definition when she takes algebra 2

#

lol myb

rose cypress
#

For instance

cobalt inlet
#

Do u guys use algebra out in the real world 😔

#

?

rose cypress
#

3x+2

rose cypress
night gate
#

yes i use it when measuring the amount of toilet paper i need to clean my macbooks screen

night gate
rose cypress
#

What the fusadcat

night gate
#

why did you take your arrow away

cobalt inlet
#

So how do I make it into a function

rose cypress
#

Cause I don’t do that?

rose cypress
#

So for instance

#

F(x)=3x+2

#

Is a function

#

You can find out it’s a function by proving it’s a bijection

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
#

Oh wait bijection is later on

#

@night gate help explain pls

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
cobalt inlet
rose cypress
#

By setting it equal to a function notation I think

#

So f(x), g(x) etc

night gate
#

forget the arrow that says its a function

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

so the letters are the functions

rose cypress
night gate
#

yes g(x) is a function p(x) is a function anything can be that letter

cobalt inlet
#

Ok

rose cypress
#

Well, f(x) is a function and also could be considered the output

night gate
#

ok and you know that functions have a unique Y output right

cobalt inlet
#

x and y yeah

rose cypress
#

Y=f(x)

#

X is just input, and the independent variable

#

It’s just a value you plug in

#

So x=2

#

You would denote it as f(2)

#

So for instance

#

F(x)=3x+2

night gate
#

for every input i get a different and special output

#

thats what a function is

cobalt inlet
#

😭 😭

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
rose cypress
#

Apathy

#

Let’s take a step back

night gate
#

🫡

rose cypress
#

And explain what an input and output is and a whole general definition of a function

#

Before we provide examples

cobalt inlet
#

My Maths teacher failed me

night gate
#

ok ill leave this to you as i have to go do something i will be back in 40 minutes

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

LITERALLY NOTHING

night gate
#

just try organic chem tutor he basically taught me everything

night gate
#

he probably has a video for this exact topic

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

it's a reflection of your teaching

night gate
#

this is a perfect video

#

watch that

#

hes the goat

rose cypress
#

This is also good

night gate
#

dont watch types of functions as it might confuse you

rose cypress
#

Just watch these videos in chronological video

night gate
#

so from 5 to 11 minutes dont watch that part

#

just watch the first 5 minutes of that video

night gate
#

then ask axkyn any question you have

#

ill be back in 40

cobalt inlet
#

kk

rose cypress
#

If teacher incompetent then teach yourself devilish

cobalt inlet
#

I'm gonna have to put hours into learning something I'm never gonna use again

rose cypress
#

What do you like to do

cobalt inlet
#

lay down

#

read

#

play some video games

rose cypress
#

Hm

#

Watch the course I sent you

#

I promise it will refresh your knowledge on this

#

How’s it going @cobalt inlet

cobalt inlet
cobalt inlet
rose cypress
#

How you doing

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
#

Show me an example?

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

For these he's literally just adding +1 to the input

rose cypress
#

Oh the expression is x+1 then

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

and then these you find the output by even and odd?

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
cobalt inlet
rose cypress
cobalt inlet
rose cypress
rose cypress
#

Also for this problem specifically

#

I think a very important clarification is needed

cobalt inlet
rose cypress
#

For a function to exist, you must have one input and one pout

#

Output

cobalt inlet
#

Yeah

rose cypress
#

You cannot have one input going to one output

#

For instance

#

A wrong function would be you inputting 2 into the function getting 3 and 4

#

That’s just not a function

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

if you input 2 into the fuction as x wouldn't the output be 4

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

well

#

x | output say f(x)

-2 | -2

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
night gate
#

im back

rose cypress
#

Yo

cobalt inlet
cobalt inlet
tacit karma
#

hey what's the question

cobalt inlet
tacit karma
#

does it specify what kind of function or just function

cobalt inlet
#

That's all it says

tacit karma
#

i see

#

maybe concentrate on g(x) first

#

for it to be not a function you need to make either x=-1 or x=6 map to another value

tacit karma
#

that doesnt work

#

you must have in either -1 twice or 6 twice in the column with x

#

for g(x)

cobalt inlet
tacit karma
#

x
-1
-1
6
or
x
-1
6
6

night gate
#

ok now im actually back was busy with something

#

did you watch the video i sent ?

cobalt inlet
night gate
#

ok thats fine lets work it out then like anti algebraist was saying lets just focus on the function g(x) first

#

so remember for a function to work the x value has to have a specific y value right ?

tacit karma
#

do the entries on the left table depend on the right table?

#

@cobalt inlet

cobalt inlet
tacit karma
#

you seemed to have left the channel so i pinged you

cobalt inlet
#

Yeah I did

tacit karma
#

oh

night gate
cobalt inlet
#

I've decided to just fail 😔

rose cypress
night gate
tacit karma
#

all the explanations are for no good if they dont explain what you are questioning

cobalt inlet
#

I thought you just multiply to find them

tacit karma
#

here you dont do any operations

#

you dont know how f(x) and g(x) look like

#

you just know some numbers that output some other numbers

tacit karma
# cobalt inlet

the goal here is to input the right numbers and output the correct numbers so that f(x) is a function but g(x) isnt

#

since they dont codepend, you can make it easy

#

first you need to know what makes a function a function

rose cypress
#

Explain the definition of a function

tacit karma
#

so you then know what makes a function not a function

#

one has not to do with the other rn

#

@cobalt inlet are you here?

cobalt inlet
#

yes

tacit karma
#

did you understand so far

#

you need to tell us

cobalt inlet
#

what makes a function

#

is two sets of things

#

an input and an output connected together

tacit karma
#

you are taking the right path

#

the most crucial thing is how a function works

cobalt inlet
#

The input controls the output

tacit karma
#

yes

#

and

#

an input has always one output

#

for example

#

your keyboard is a function

cobalt inlet
#

is it

tacit karma
#

your input is your pressing a key

#

the output you expect is the key

#

you dont expect two keys to pop out

#

if I type a then a pops

#

one input gives one output

cobalt inlet
#

Then click -1 and -1 comes out

tacit karma
#

you dont get suddenly when pressing a you a b

tacit karma
#

the most important thing is that it's one output

cobalt inlet
#

The input is the x and the output is the y?

tacit karma
#

yes

rose cypress
#

F(x) can also be considered the output as well

tacit karma
#

the set of letters can be the input
and the output can be again the set of letters

#

the function just does something with these letters

#

what it does, is not really important

#

just know it's a system

#

another function could be

#

you input your name and outputs your surname

#

you wouldnt expect to output two surnames

#

or a function that tells you your age based on your birthday

#

you would expect to output two ages at the same times

#

see how counterintuitive that is, how intuitive functions are

cobalt inlet
#

yup

tacit karma
#

now back to this

#

say g(x) was age

rose cypress
tacit karma
#

ok nah

#

say g(x) was temperature

#

yea

rose cypress
cobalt inlet
#

NO

rose cypress
#

Bro thought -1 lmao

tacit karma
#

x was temperature in the morning and g(x) in the evening

cobalt inlet
#

let's say g(x) is how many days till my birthday

tacit karma
#

now to make g(x) not a function you would just need to make either -1 or 6 output two values

tacit karma
rose cypress
tacit karma
#

negative days would be your birthday happened

rose cypress
tacit karma
#

what would be the input

#

to make sense of it

#

like just days

cobalt inlet
#

53

tacit karma
#

uhm what

cobalt inlet
#

That's days

#

53 days

tacit karma
#

no i mean like how do you make sense of the -1

#

if you tell g(x) -1 what does it do

cobalt inlet
#

HUH??

tacit karma
#

temperature was much better

cobalt inlet
#

Cap

#

53 days Anti Algebraist

tacit karma
#

let's say g(x) is how many days till my birthday
(-8 days remain)

#

thanks

cobalt inlet
#

-8 DAYS OMG IT PASSED 8 DAYS AGO?

tacit karma
#

ok

#

say x was just some day, and g(x) tells us how many days (from x) till your bday

#

so -1 would just be yesterday

rose cypress
#

Lmao

cobalt inlet
#

This is so lame

tacit karma
#

now to make g(x) not a function you need to make sure that g(-1) or g(yesterday) gives you two values

#

thats all

cobalt inlet
#

g(-8)

#

is what you're saying

tacit karma
#

no

#

-8 is not even x

#

g(x) = -8

cobalt inlet
#

yes

#

But yesterday like you said 8 days ago

#

INPUT -8 to the (x)

tacit karma
#

yes but the key is you dont

#

do that in f(x)

#

in g(x) you must input -1 again or 6

#

your only choices

#

so it doesnt become a function

cobalt inlet
tacit karma
#

now you need to assign two values to 6

#

that are not the same ofc

cobalt inlet
#

Why are u putting a 6 there

tacit karma
#

because you are not listening

cobalt inlet
#

I AM WHAT?

tacit karma
#

you aren't

#

thats it

#

either you focus your shit up or iam gone

cobalt inlet
#

Im js not understanding

tacit karma
#

reading without comprehension

#

thats lack of focus

cobalt inlet
