okay so yeah i'm pretty sure it's just what goon posted, that's what i'm pretty much finding as an answer. my question, why is there such a difference between the graph of -2x^3/5 and -2x^4/5? they're different, yet similar...

 

@tyler no parentheses were in the problem. i dunno.

-2x^3/5 looks kinda like this:

 

-2 * ( 5√x)3

 

Wheras the other is:

 

-2 * ( 5√x)4

 

(That's a fifth root.)

 

You're raising it to a different power, and the graphs of different roots differ slightly. This is especially true with 3 and 4, since 3's odd and 4's even.

My skin is finally getting soft
I'll scrub until the damn thing comes off

It's funny. In high school I could have figured this all out, but as soon as you get to college and finish all of your required math courses you forget everything. EVERYTHING. WHAT THE [bleep] IS A FIFTH FRUIT?

I'm going to milk Goon's teats

God damn I hope if I ever have kids I don't have girls.

The once was a mexican called pepsi,

Or maybe it's just he had Hep C,

He was a pretty cool bro,

Bros generally are you know,

He hailed from the land of 'taters,

He was known to hate many-a-hater,

He likes a girl named Lacey,

His thoughts about her are kind of racy,

And also his dad likes to [rooster].

WHY DID I LAUGH SO MUCH AT THAT IT'S NOT THAT FUNNY?

 

I'm going to bed.
