This one you do, what can you say about the transformations

darkknight:

f(x-3) - 1 what transformations are we doing here

jnlkmnjkm:

im not sure

darkknight:

We have worked through so many, what does (x-3) inside the function f tell us? what about the -1 on the outside? are there any dilations?

jnlkmnjkm:

im not sure

darkknight:

that's not gonna fly here, how much have you understood from all the other similar questions you asked?

darkknight:

what does (x-3) inside the function f tell us? what about the -1 on the outside? are there any dilations?

jnlkmnjkm:

dilations means its negative?

darkknight:

???

darkknight:

what is negative? remember about the reflecting if the sign is negative, we dilate when we had something like f(3(x-1)) where we would dilate by compressing by 3 times. Ive already mentioned all of this

darkknight:

multiple times*

jnlkmnjkm:

yep we dilate

darkknight:

vertically...? horizontally....? Where? What? Why???

jnlkmnjkm:

vertically

darkknight:

uhhhhhhhhh

darkknight:

oh my bad, i was sneezing, anyways why would we dilate this vertically? we are given f(x-3) - 1

jnlkmnjkm:

which means horzontially?

darkknight:

how about you look back at all the questions you asked and see where you dilated and where you did not, if you did not know you could have asked much earlier. anyways reflect on the other questions you asked

jnlkmnjkm:

sorry im not sure

darkknight:

Have you not been following along over all the questions you have asked? Dude im not gonna spoon feed you, You must have some idea on what to do here. And dont just randomly guess you should say something like I think we should do __________ because _________. Then I can check over it

Florisalreadytaken:

darkknight:

please dont explain the steps to him/her. Im trying to teach

darkknight:

And see if they have learned the process

Florisalreadytaken:

ok but @jnlkmnjkm, have you learnt anything from what dknight explained to you? and he did it several times if am not wrong?

jnlkmnjkm:

im sorry can we learn again

Florisalreadytaken:

ok, you see we got that x minus 3 inside the parentheses right?

jnlkmnjkm:

yep

Florisalreadytaken:

that means we are moving from out origin, which is 0,0, RIGHT 3

jnlkmnjkm:

alright i see

Florisalreadytaken:

the -1, which comes after, tels us that we are moving negative 1 DOWN the Y axis*

Florisalreadytaken:

so that would be

jnlkmnjkm:

yep

Florisalreadytaken:

so, all cleared up?

jnlkmnjkm:

THATS ALLL!!!!!!

jnlkmnjkm:

jnlkmnjkm:

is that all

Florisalreadytaken:

that is it...

jnlkmnjkm:

THHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANKS

Florisalreadytaken:

you got it!

darkknight:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @jnlkmnjkm im sorry can we learn again \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) please pay more attention and ask questions the first time
