@amistre64 now can you help me :D
@Hero
@campbell_st
tell me your thoughts, how do we define an origin?
Thats where it went gmergme4gtm5tmpt5p4 < Confusing i dont understand it
i dont know what that means
Exactly....
I dont know what the question means either
then you might need to google what an origin is ... otherwise we will not be speaking on the same terms
wait i know what it means now please continue :)
Its the starting point :)
we want to find the origin of the signal, how do we define an origin? what is the origin on our conventional graphing system? we start at 0,0 right?
Wow so many questions and yes right!
this is a study session, how can we study if im the only one that does the thinking?
Sorry its just this is our final unit and im just coming to terms with these problems :(
consider the form: u^2 + v^2 = 36 the origin is at u=0, v=0 now compare that to your form where u = x+6, and v=y+4 how do we relate the origin to your problem?
this is our study session, when you decide to study is not my concern :) but we will still study it regardless
:)
u = x+6, and v=y+4 our origin is u=0, v=0 therefore, in relation to x and y 0 = x+6 and 0 = y+4 what are our values of x and y in relation to the origin?
you shold already know that, im not here to teach you the entirety of algebra. they cover solving for a single variable way before they cover this stuff.
Would i get y by it self? and x?
x is the name of a variable, there is nothing special in a name
0 = x+6 , solve for x 0 = y+4 , solve for y
-6=x -4=y ?
good, so in relation to our xy plane, the origin is at: -6,-4 right?
Yes
|dw:1433281584913:dw|
so in relation to the xy plane, we now know where it originates at ... our range is ... hmm, would you agree its a circle?
Hmm i believe so
well, the circle equation is just the distance from a central points, the radius measures the distance from the center of a circle what is our distance formula?
\[2\sqrt{13} ?\]
thats not a distance formula, thats a number
Wait do we have 2 points or is it that one that i solved for ?
we have 2 points, an origin (-6,-4), and all (or any) points (x,y) from it
what is the distance between the points (-6,-4) and (x,y)?
If i told you im a little lost would you leave me ?
at this point, yes :) what is our distance formula?
lol wait are you serious and do you want me to write the formula?
i want you to write the formula for distance, this will help us determine the range
Ok
\[d=\sqrt{(x _{2}}-x _{1})^{2} + (y _{2}-y _{1})^{2}\] = ?
Sorry im not so good with that equation button but everything is squared
what is the question?
good, but lets square each side (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2 = d^2 let -6,-4 be the point x1,y1 and let x,y be some other point (x-(-6))^2 + (y-(-4))^2 = d^2 how does this compare to (x+6)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 36
Thanks but @freeG13 i will show you if @amistre64 gives up on me :) but i doubt he will
Are the exact thing its just the bottom is the simplified version
so, d^2 = 36 then, what is d?
