A Quick Pause For Modulus Func-tionnn Flashcards
If an inequality is of the form mod x-a <b how can you write this
Where does it come from
Can write this like -b <x-a<b and then add a both side to give -b+a<x<a +b
Comes from solving a simple inequality mod x <1, you’ll see you end up getting that range so itsnot directly obvious but this is Ei thing you NEED TO KNOW
Okay if inequality is z<x<y how to convert into mod form?
Add y +z /2 that gives you a
Then subtrsvt a from one side or add from another should fall to same number
IMPORTSNT how to convert from inequality to mod form EXACT STEPS NO MATTER WHAT
add both extreme and divide by 2 EVEN IF THEY ARE NEGATIVE
Whatever you get, that is = to a!
So even if - number, becomes x - -a = x+a in the modulus!
NOW take number and SUBTRACT FROM BITH SIDES (keeping sign), should end up in the SAME number and can not comolete it
How to solve mod inequalities on both sides easy way but what to do
Can draw graoh long
Easy is to sqaure and eauate, but then MUST check if these answers actually fit
And what if the inequalities have a mod + a CONSTSNT, can you still sqaure?
How do you draw graphs (watch out for?)
In this case no you Cant sqaure , as it doesn’t achieve anything
Here you must use graphs! Draw new graph based on intercept changes and equate as it won’t just be +- the mod
Can you multiply and divide equations wholey with modulus?
YES YOU CAN, but only multiply and divide
How to draw mod growths with a transformation?
It’s same as complete sqaure form to find vertex
Then must pally transformation to both + - graohs
Draw groans
Find intercelts
Might have to reflect
Or just draw it normally then do trandfosmtion
