looks pretty much correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just 3pi

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Woops, your phase shift looks off.\[\large\rm y=\tan\left[6\pi x-3\pi\right]\]\[\large\rm y=\tan\left[6\pi\left(x-\frac{1}{2}\right)\right]\]So your phase shift should be C=1/2, ya?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Oh you just label C=3pi, ok my mistake :) just different lettering maybe hehe

zepdrix (zepdrix):

I guess I'm a little confused by your labeling.. hmm why start at 3pi if your phase shift is 1/2...

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Becomes easier to add your fractions when you have the correct shift value: x1 = 1/2 x2 = 1/2 + 1/12 x3 = 1/2 + 2/12 x4 = 1/2 + 3/12 x5 = 1/2 + 1/3

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Yes, that's what I wrote. You have to factor out the B from each term to get the correct horizontal shift.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

C helps us find the horizontal shift, it isn't the shift itself though. The horizontal shift is C/B

zepdrix (zepdrix):

A=1 B=6pi C=3pi D=0 Therefore: Amplitude=1 Period = 2pi/6pi = 1/3 Phase Shift = 3pi/6pi = 1/2

zepdrix (zepdrix):

It's going to make your calculations easier which is nice :)

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Oh oh oh oh oh, we forgot another important detail. Tangent is periodic in Pi! Not 2Pi!

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Period = pi/6pi

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Period = 1/6 So that messes up your points as well XD lol

zepdrix (zepdrix):

this is getting a little confusing, maybe you can look at my notes really quick and see if this makes sense. https://www.twiddla.com/2509337

zepdrix (zepdrix):

i don't think you should have any pi's in your intervals or asymptotes.. hmm

zepdrix (zepdrix):

yay team \c:/ I think we did it
