can you pls help me? graph f(x) = sin (pi-x) PLEASE!
same graph as y=sin x
really? how come?
@ienarancillo: Its a property of the sine function. An easy way to imagine it is this: When you plot the sine of a value "taken" out from pi, its essentially the same thing. You can prove it by expanding the equation.
aww, thankyou so much!
one last question please?
Sure thing. Shoot

please @sumi29 :)
Ok
Lets work this out.
Can you graph g(x)? Just simple g(x), nothing fancy. Try it out. Recall that since the abs function is used, ALL values will be positive.
yup, ill try. :)

is it like this? lol. sorry @sumi29
@ienarancillo : Brilliant. You are correct. Now, lets move on. We know the graph of g(x). What happens when we try to plot g(-0.5x)? What changes?
Haha. irdk bout that part. but im sure it's not the vertical and horizontal shift that changes. i guess the period changes? lol. just guessing
Well, two things change. The sign, and the value (since you are dividing ALL values of the input, x, by half)!! So now that you know this, try it out. Don't worry, you are on the right track!
weee. ok thanks. i'll get back to you in a bit. :)
so, ill just pick any values of x which is in the domain given and subsitute it to (-1/2x), is that it? :)
@sumi29 :)
@ienarancillo : Yes, you are correct! You have already solved the question!
awww, HAHAHA. THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!
@ienarancillo : You are welcome. Don't hesitate before asking more questions. :-)
