List the members of the relation, R, if x is an integer, y=2x-1, and -3 <= x < 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AP pre-cal is a pain in the behind lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So here, like the last problem, you have the x values of [-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3) Notice the square and round brackets too! Plug it all into the y= equation and you have your y's :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's much like the previous question but "easier" in that you don't have to find the domain and range

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And yeah, APs >.< meh haha Good college credit though :]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, it said to find the domain and range on another question lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and one question, on the previous question, you told me that i need to find the y values with the given list also?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like 3y=3-2x ; x E {0,2,4,6}...do i have to find the y values also?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well it depends on what the question is asking...so for both, you'd have to find all the y-values...this question just asks for a list of them but the previous question asked you to take it a step further and find the domain and range, which isn't too difficult once you get the list of y-values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

[-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3) thats the list for the question i just asked?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

These are the x- values, yup. But now you need to plug in each entry in place of the "x" in the equation of y=2x-1 so you get a list of the y-variables

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooooh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your a f'ing genius, you know that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all right can i ask you another question here or on a different question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it also asks you for -3 <= x <3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all right nameless, do your magic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Haha thanks man :D and sure thing!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh and the -3<= x <3 is there just to telll you which integers you use to plug into the equation y=2x-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because otherwise..there'd be infinite possibilities which is...undesirable

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooh all right, that makes it clear

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all right so, last problem for tonight

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x-3/5 over 2+3/x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x-3/5 \over 2+3/x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok and you're trying to simplify? Solve for x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide; simplify the results

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide; simplify the results

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lagggg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get that one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well...yes? It looks a bit more complex but if you're trying to get rid of the fractions on the top and bottom, then I think I got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's very complex lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So take the numerator and denominator apart to get x-(3/5) on top...Then multiply x by 5 to get (5x-3)/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since 5x/5 is still x, you can combine them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So then you do the same to the denominator to get (2x+3)/x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a bit troubled

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now you have to separate, but whole fractions that you're dividing The rule with dividing two fractions is that it's the same as multiplying the fraction in the numerator by the inverse of the denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i seperate the numerator and denominator?
