@MrBladeSlayer Technically, if you were testing symmetry, when you put it (-x)^2, and it turns out to be a positive x, you can just put it back into the equation as x^2 since you're not trying to solve the equation, but more just testing if the x will become negative or stay positive. For example, f(x)=x^2-x, so f(-x)=(-x)^2-(-x), which becomes f(-x)=x^2+x, and there is no symmetry because f(-x) doesn't equal -f(x) or f(x).
i'm on a video binge. this is literally the seventh one today. tackling midterms just got a whooooole lot easier <3 thank you very much! (also was so tired that read "parts" as "pants" which was sort of sexy/creepy)
You should really write a book on AP CAL!! I would defiantly buy it!

SIr Patrick..may I know how about a curve symmetry to x-axis rather than y-axis and origin...is there anyway to demonstrate that??

how would you find the intercepts and asymptotes of the equation:
y = 1 + (1/x) + (1/x^2)
y equals one plus one over x plus one over x squared
thanksss

@jonasHOESx3 first of all make it one single fraction, and then:
Equal it to zero -> x intercept
Substitute zero for x -> y intercept
find the limit at infinity -> asymptote.
good luck

wow thanx patrick . you are a king ... but i think this calculus 1
we need more example of calculus 3 ((vector integral))
