What does function mean?
well no direct answers but do you have a clue what the answer is
no Becuase I have no clue what a function is
So you're in trig class but you don't know what a function is?.....
No like I don’t know what it’s asking I lost my notebook full of my notes
And you can be in a trig class and not be good at math
Midline, reflection, max, min, should be the easiest do you know where's the midline?
I think so, isn’t there where it starts or like the middle of the graph
And max and min yes
in A sin(b(x+c)) +D D is the midline, A is the amplitude So, what's midline
is it b?
So -2
wat in the Asin(b(x+c))+D D is the midline... So look at your function.. which number is in the place of D
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @nikkixmarie So -2 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) no that would be amplitude
-1
yes, so there's your midline
I’m so sorry i struggle in this
And then we can know the maximum and minimum of the y-value of htis function Do you know what amplitude is?
The height of the center of the line or curve
From the midline, how much it goes up /how much it goes down is equal, so, yea, ig that's the amplitude... don't rly get your definition So, from -1.... we have amplitude of 2 Which means the minimum is -1-2, and the maximum is -1+2
What does the function mean, what is it asking?
So right now this is more of in the form of Asin(x+C) + D you kinda need to get the B out, because you need the value B to find period I think that's what it's asking you to do..... So we need to convert taht form to Asin(b(x+C) +D
oh okay
I think that you can change it to -2sin(1/2(8x-pi) -1
Is that what it means by function tho
So then because period is 2pi/B It would be 4pi as period
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @nikkixmarie Is that what it means by function tho \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) just put the function as -2sin(1/2(8x-pi) -1 I'm not too sure, when I did this, we didn't have a line for function....
Yea me either she’s teaching it in a very complicated way and gets mad when you ask for help
e.e
So would 4pi be the period for most of the functions
the period for this one is 4pi i think ye
Alright thanks
actually wait, hwen i graph it it's 1/2
yep, nevermind, the period is 1/2 But for reflection, it's yes, because if there's a negative sign, it flips
Okay when it’s negative though do you graph it on the opposite side of the graph
Or just stay on the positive side
What do you mean 'opposite side of the graph'
Let me send a pic hold on
It kind of just reflects over its midline
do I graph it where the positive radians are or the negative
You do know that a function continues on forever.... right?
clearly not. Why do u think I’m asking.
We have period of 1/2, which means that from the top to down, it's 1/4 pi graph it on desmos what do you mean.... you learn that a function continues on forever when you start learning about linear equations
No because my math teachers don’t teach well
And because it continues on forever, it doesn't really matter which point you choose to start it at, as long as its on the graph somewhere it's fine
I wasn’t aware.
i suggest using Desmos adn then comparing
Ok
