g(x)=(6-x^6)/5 in standard form

OpenStudy (jchick):

Do you know what standard form is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm drawing a blank :/

OpenStudy (jchick):

What class is this for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

College algebra lmao so it's pretty sad that I can't remember it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You there?

OpenStudy (jchick):

Sorry I will be just one sec having problems with my computer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So where do I go from there lol

OpenStudy (jchick):

@HHS6281019 I apologize I have to keep reloading the page.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I keep having issues as well

OpenStudy (jchick):

Okay I am on my laptop it should work one here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, sweet. Thank you in advance

OpenStudy (jchick):

This is not a line or a parabola so the only "standard form" would be to separate each term and put them in order of descending powers.

OpenStudy (jchick):

Do you see how to do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So g(x) = -x^6/5+ 6/5?

OpenStudy (jchick):

Right but wait when you multiply each by -1 what does x^6 become?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-x^6?

OpenStudy (jchick):

What happens when you multiply a negative by a negative? Or a positive by a negative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohhhh my bad. Positive

OpenStudy (jchick):

For instance look at it like this -1 times -1 equals 1.

OpenStudy (jchick):

Correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So x^6/5 - 6/5?

OpenStudy (jchick):

Correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Awesome! Thank you!

OpenStudy (jchick):

Not a problem! (Sorry about the computer problems I guess it doesn't work on my desktop.)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nice! I don't really know much about that college but that is neat that you are dual enrolled you don't meet to many people that are dual enrolled.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah not that many people do it but I'm not sure why because it's free college lol

OpenStudy (jchick):
