Bffs Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Has anybody got the Shadow Functions Portfolio?I'm stuck on what the shadow generating function of the quartic function is... HELP! 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksbunny Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 HEEEELP!!!! I'm doing my first first part of the portfolio at the moment, and i am doing it about shadow functions!!! Anyone who already did it!!! I need help!! I just dont know who to get to y2 in the cubic function grave: y=(x+2)(x-(3+2i))(x-(3-2i)) Thank you sooo much!! hey i am really really sorry, but i cant really help you with your question, but i thought that you might can help me!!! i'm trying since ages to get the function for y2 for the second (the cubic) function grave!!! you would do me a huge favour with it!

Don't you have the zeros of y2? Just build a function with these, and you'll be fine! (x-a1)(x-a2)(x-a3) where an are the zeros! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHubble Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 I got my IA this week, and it seems that nobody on this forum have Type I Shadow Functions. Any ideas for the last question about quartic functions? 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellwo Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 It might help if you specify the question so those of us who don't have the IA can help Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepisover Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Noticed theres another shadow fucntions thread but didnt want to hijack.Im completely stuck at point 4 of part B where it wants a provable general statement, that point is extremely broad, what exactly does should that general statement acheive? or what should it show? 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Filipino Limner Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Noticed theres another shadow fucntions thread but didnt want to hijack. Im completely stuck at point 4 of part B where it wants a provable general statement, that point is extremely broad, what exactly does should that general statement acheive? or what should it show? I guess you have to say what you did in Part A with the quadratic function. What was the shadow-generating function? How did you get it? What is/are the equations of the shadow-generating functions? You may also want to use the general statement you made to prove the quartics and quintics, so always try to keep in my what variables you'll need to prove your statement, like Ym and the equation!

Then you must prove this statement to show that it works for cubic function. Edited February 19, 2012 by bomaha Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summer Glau Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Noticed theres another shadow fucntions thread but didnt want to hijack. Don't worry about hijacking a portfolio thread! Anyone can ask a question related to the task in this thread, and someone out there may be able to help you. Go ahead and post your questions in this thread 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHubble Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) Well, I did a lot of research with two of my friends, and found out a general pattern for the ym function, but we then realized that whe needed the b parameter, which we do not know! Graphically, we cannot see complex roots, and the question in mainly focusing on graph interpretation. This IA is seriously pissing me off. It's like way too broad, it seems endless! And I want 18+/20 . Edited September 23, 2011 by iHubble Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdibasco Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 "On a labelled diagram, illustrate how the zeros of y2 may be helpful in the determination of the real and imaginary components of the complex zeros of y1 ."Does anyone know how the zeros of y2 are related to the zeros of y1?

iHubble Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Well, just graph y1, ym and y2 on the same graphic. Then, identify every roots and intersection points. You'll know the relation between the three main functions as you compare them. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellloo Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Do you guys know if an introduction is needed for this portfolio or not? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irma18 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 glad to know im not the only one struggling with this IA....ugh! and to the above post, yes an introduction is required. think of this as an essay for any other class. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHubble Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 I suggest reading the topic about Mathematics Portfolio Tips and such. It was really helpful for me! For my part, I did a 700 words introduction and talked about polynomial functions, roots, some history, the IA, software used and some mathematical basic informations for the task. Hope it helps for the intro . Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB Smacher Glau Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 the proofing of the general statement was the hardest part ! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSMFW Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Hey guys, I'm doing this portfolio atm now. But I am quite stuck on how to find the point of intersection on Part B. I know on the x axis due to the real root (x+2) means that the coordinate on the x axis is -2, 0 [which is one point of intersection]. However (I think using the complex roots) I need to find out how to calculate the other point of intersection in order to find the gradient/ ym. help would be greatly, seriously greatly appreciated. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicheto93 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Some of my friends have this... They said they read through a lot of comments but at the end they came up with the answer them selves and they received 16/20 or so.. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
