## anonymous one year ago can someone give me a algebra function that equals to 13?

1. anonymous

idk why but well our math teacher gave us that homework and i have no idea where to start.

2. anonymous

f(x) = 13 should do the trick

3. anonymous

well we are supposed to make a function problem for others to solve it...

4. anonymous

so you want an expression with a variable?

5. anonymous

and we are learning pretty advanced math, and it could be actually any algebra problem i think...

6. anonymous

i hope...

7. anonymous

maybe you are supposed to say "let $$f(x)=2x+1$$ solve $$f(x)=13$$" maybe

8. anonymous

yeah something like that but more complicated... and u could be asking for y inter, roots, anything

9. LoganH

sorry

10. anonymous

um... more complicated... the teacher example is like $((\sqrt{5})^{2})^{2})-(-3)^0+2!+\frac{ 28 }{ 4 }$

11. anonymous

for one of her numbers

12. anonymous

any ideas?

13. anonymous

well it is suppsoed to be a review of algebra honors i took last year and since we have the same teacher for 8th geo so she decided to give us this thing

14. anonymous

and i need to make different equations for 13, 4, 2, 0, 4, 0, 2, 2 they have to be different equations idk why.

15. anonymous

I'm confused. Are you looking for a function whose value is 13 at some point? Or are you looking for a PEMDAS style problem that gives 13 as the answer?

16. anonymous

it is a non-word problem relating to algebra that is hard to solve.

17. anonymous

where do the y-intercept/roots come in? The example above doesn't even have a variable. Can you post the exact question you got, maybe that will make it easier to see what it's asking for.

18. anonymous

well... the problem is that i am supposed to make the question. and that equation up there is one of the teacher's examples.

19. anonymous

20. anonymous

this is how the teacher did it

21. anonymous

and so i have me age and bla bla bla bla bla so now i need to make problems out of them

22. anonymous

ok. I see

23. anonymous

I never would have understood what you were after without seeing that

24. anonymous

:P

25. anonymous

sorry i never noticed that i didnt attach the file :|

26. anonymous

any ideas?

27. anonymous

It's hard for someone else to make these up, because we don't really know what you've covered. I don't think they have to be too complex. 2 of them are research style questions and 2 are order of operations type. Maybe do one where you ask for a discriminant of a quadratic equation. Or one that requires some combining of exponents

28. anonymous

she has one that says number of roots. You can probably do something like sum or product of roots. Or make up a system of equations and have one of the answers be the product of the coordinates.

29. anonymous

well that is basicially what we've covered. ,ake it pretty hard please :) well i'm not the one doing it :P

30. anonymous

I wish I could help, Im not very good at math

31. anonymous

:|

32. anonymous

@Leong

33. anonymous

you can... basically just based on her data and makes yours, please check by actually testing and doing it out, not just randomly write it :)

34. anonymous

yea but i need help making mine cz the numbers are different

35. anonymous

36. anonymous

37. anonymous

fhank u!!!!!!!

38. anonymous

thank*

39. anonymous

hey wait let me close this and make another one it takes too long to bump and the replies are too long too
