Exploring Graphs

(with even and odd exponents)

Claudette Tucker

Are there any similar characteristics of the even exponent equations and the equations of odd exponents?

OF COURSE!

 

 

 
 

Can we use our assumptions to generate answers of how the graphs of and

will look?


Based on the graphs of , we can assume that will take the form of a square or a figure that is similar to a square. Why? Refer to graphs on the previous page. is a circle and is transforming into a square-like figure. Thus we can conclude the same for as . Also, from our observation of odd exponents, we can gather that will follow the same pattern of graphs .

Let's check our assumptions.

 

 

OUR HYPOTHESIS WAS ACCURATE!
