Daily Graph 16-01-09

y=(x3-1)/(x-1)

I am giving an easy one this time because to the tougher ones no one is getting a solution ;)

pritish take one example of y = 1/x2

as x → 0 ,
y tends to infinity from both left and right .
But we cant define y at x = 0 .
So discontinuity is there.

I've finally decided to ask....why is it not defined at x = 1? Can't we cancel out the (x - 1) term by factorization? If you really look at it as a function, why aren't we given a domain of values to operate on?
I just tried on different graphing calculators to make sure, and I was quite vexed...they're all giving the graph for x² + x + 1 for all values of x, even though in the Points Plot tab for x = 1, no value is displayed for y. There should be a vertical asymptote at x = 1 then isn't it?

pritish when u are cancelling (x-1) that means u r assuming that u wont take the value of x as 1 .
it is similar to 0 / 0 . Can i cancel the zeros and say 0/0 = 1 ?

and here LHL = RHL at x = 1 is 3 but not ∞ or -∞ .

so no asymptotes.

the graph is approximately like this

not a vertical asymptoe
there will be just a hole

that asymptote thing that u are talking doesnt come in the case 00 case

it comes in x0 case where x is definite quantitiy not equal to 0

ohhh achaaa.matalb their ll be discontinuty at tht point baki curve waisa hi hoga

But qwerty...if LHL = RHL how does a discontinuity exist?

1
Sonne ·

@pritish
the definition of a limit
it is limit x (tends to 1 ) that exists

the function at x=1 is undefined

jyada achcha is not important.. both of you missed the vital point thta the function is not defined at 1!

39
Pritish Chakraborty ·

Ok so in this case LHL = RHL ≠Value so there is a sort of point discontinuity at x = 1?

yes

yes
u r rite pritish....

what will b graph of ... log {sin2x} ?

39
Dr.House ·

{ } is just a bracket ?

fractional part function?

Subhomoy Bakshi ·

considering {.} denotes fractional part,

the graph will be something like this!!

the 5 vertical lines drawn have the eqns

x= -Ï€,

x=- π2,

x=0,

x=Ï€2 and

x=Ï€

The blue lines are the remnants of the sin 2x curve
the yellow-green lines signify {sin 2x} curve {.} means fractional part
the dark-green lines signify the required graph i.e. ln {sin 2x}

apologies: the points marked in blue must have respectively having same x coordinates i.e. lying vertically above/below one another

P.S. : i used only ms-paint to draw this graph and i am feeling proud after being able to draw something as neat as this in paint :P

in the above two graphs the two inverted BELL-LIKE SHAPE are NOT parabolas

actually i am not absolutely sure abt the shapes

they can be either of

sir graph shud be posted

sir it is a parabola

sanchit ·

will it not intersect the y axis at (0,1).or it is already assumed

1
The Enlightened One - jsg ·

yes , what Sanchit is telling is true : the graph though parabolic , intersects the y axis at y=1 , OTHER GRAPHS GIVEN ABOVE ARE ACTUALLY WRONG !

Subash ·

does not exist at x=1

at other places it is the parabola

y=x2+x+1

for u two i have a simple question...have u ALREADY solved ALL THE 100's of G-O-D given so far???

i don thnk so....!!!
