I put the Nazi flag as my banner on Facebook and I'm sure you know what the Nazi flag means. Now it's pretty much the same for the confederate flag. Facebook banned my account from activity for 24 for making the Nazi flag as my banner on Facebook. I saw someone else have the confederate flag on Facebook and they're profile was still active. Therefore I put the confederate flag on my profile and everywhere. Thank you and have a great day.
Is there an easier/different way to do it? We have some monsterous funcitons like for example 7x^9+3x^4-3x^2+2x+8 which we'd need to factor... I don't think this method works very well on those. lol I know there are online calculators or better and newer calculators that can do it but I have only TI 84 plus.
Thank you very much, Susan! Your video helped me a lot. Would you please tell me how did you get your last formula of the last question when you divided each term by 1/k? Again, thank you so much.
fahad... maybe ur missing the point? this wasn't an algebra lesson. i mean, she was demonstrating Ti-84 capability not teach us how to factor... we have to bring something to the table too :)
Why not just enter Y2 = 0 and then just find the intersection of the quadratic and the x-axis to find any real roots? It's much easier than having to go left of the root and then right of the root. Just a suggestion.
"But this video doesn't explain why you can simply multiply an expression by 2 and then by 3 and it's mathematically valid. That's a serious problem." It didn't directly state it, but when she said that x = -3.5 and x = 1/3 she then showed that implies x+3.5 = 0 and x - 1/3 = 0 Multiplying those two together gives you (x+3.5)(x - 1/3) which is equal to 0*0 = 0. Then since 3.5 = 7/2 she wrote (x+7/2)(x - 1/3) But keep in mind these are both still = 0 as mentioned above. (x + 7/2)(x - 1/3) = 0 Multiply both sides of the equation by 2 and the equal sign stays true. 2(x + 7/2)(x - 1/3) = 2*0 (2x + 7)(x - 1/3) = 0 Now multiply both sides by 3 and the equation still stays true because, again, you're doing the same thing to both sides of an equal expression. 3(2x+7)(x - 1/3) = 3*0 Commutative property (2x+7)*3(x - 1/3) = 0 (2x+7)(3x-1) = 0 And it is still equal to zero just as (x + 7/2)(x - 1/3) form was. It is two versions of the same factored form, one just has integers which is the way we traditionally think of "factoring".
Thanks , this helped me a lot . The chapter I was reviewing in my book was a bit confusing.. I had to sketch a graph by using y=f(x) for y=2f(1/2x)+1 and it was confusing me Because i had two separate C's in one equation. (C•y) and (cx) . Since the first one was (2f(1/2x)+1), I decided to do get my y value first to multiple c and add 1. Then for the second one f(1/2x) , I did the reciprocal times x to get my x values . I obviously need more practice, but this video helped me understand more with what I am trying to learn . Thanks
Theres an easier way under the APPS section. Check it out. Someone else has a video on youtube. This way works but pain too much button action...Just sayin..
If you are using the TI 83/84 family of calculators, you should be able to enter your number in decimal form, hit MATH ENTER ENTER, and it will convert to a fraction.
