I need help, I still have to study for other tests and it's already 11'o clock

OpenStudy (anonymous):

decide whether the part of the waveform that is below the x - axis is a glide reflection of the part that is above. if it is, write the translation using a vector in component form https://watertowngeometry.wikispaces.com/file/view/7_5+Assignment.pdf go to the top of page 5 thos are the four problems i'm doing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

those*

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if you look at #14, you'll see that you can shift the top part above the x axis til the top squares line up with the bottom squares then you can reflect those top squares over the x axis to get them to match up with the bottom squares so this shows you that #14 has a glide reflection

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so we know for sure that this is one but what about the rest are those all no glide reflections?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

which of the others are glide reflections? which of the others are not glide reflections?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think number 12 is it is equal on both sides of the x - axis and think 15 is to but 13 isn't

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

12 and 15 are glide reflections 13 is not all are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awesome alright my next problem is that it says that if it is i need to write a translation using a vector in component for. i looked up what a vector means but what is it and what is it in component form?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

component form is (x,y) or <x,y>

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ex: <2,3> means you shift to the right 2, and up 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then #12 is to the right 4 and down 4 and reflect right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you need to shift the top then reflect over the x axis to get it to match up with the bottom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok then 4 to the right and reflect?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

how are you getting 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well then what would it be like 0.7~9

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I count 2 spaces over (or 2 units) so whatever that converts to on the x scale given is the translation you want

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

see how I'm getting 2 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

focus on the top squares above the x axis in #14

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if you slide them over 2 spots to get them to line up above the bottom squares

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh lol i was talking about #12 sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be (2,0)? right

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

well you have to change that 2 to whatever 2 units corresponds to

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

notice how the x scale starts at x = 0 and goes to x = 0.1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so 2 units doesn't correspond to 2 if the x scale had each tick mark at a whole number, then it would work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right i have to figure that out so 0.05

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what's the distance from 0 to 0.1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10 units

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're not counting the edges them being rounded makes it more confusing

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what do you mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the edges are rounded on the graph and i think how the numbers are placed you are counting them before the tick marks they are supposedly set at

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yeah you don't count the starting tick mark, but the answer isn't 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought that 0.0 is the origin in this case right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

0.0 isn't the same as (0,0)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the 0.0 you're looking at refers to x = 0.0 or x = 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought it was cause on any graph it is the start right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes they all start at x = 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and this one ends on 0.10 or 0.1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes that's what you need to watch out for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then the vector or whatever would be (0.05,0)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

close, but no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then would it be (0.045,0)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

each tick mark represents 0.1/8 = ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.0125?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good, so 2 of those tick marks represent how many units?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.025

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yep

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so the translation vector is <0.025, 0> then you reflect over the x axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then 15 would be (0.025,0) then reflect across the x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and 12 would be (0.05,0) reflect across the x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

both are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OMG FINALLY I have had this question posted since 6 eastern time and finally it's answered

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

glad to be of help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well hopefully i will have you help in future posts thanks

OpenStudy (candy13106):

so did u ever get wat u need to

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (candy13106):

oh than close it

OpenStudy (candy13106):

u herd me didnt u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jezz calm down dude i will

OpenStudy (candy13106):

ok well im not jezz now lay off by the way im am girl

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i call everyone dude

OpenStudy (candy13106):

oh ok i see do u need help on any other questions

OpenStudy (candy13106):

ill help

OpenStudy (candy13106):

wat grade r u in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope i just have to study for a spanish test and finish reading a summer reading book but thank you, i'm in 10th grade

OpenStudy (candy13106):

ok kool me 7 th but me a straight a student can u help me on my questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (candy13106):

ok well it has to be some where at the bottom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (candy13106):

kk
