in the second one you should multiply all the x values by -1 and the y values are not changed(reflection on the y axis)
in the third one you should multiply the y values by -1 and the x values are not changed(reflection on the x axis)

heres to put it short, however x is treated inside the bracket, you do the opposite of it to the x - coordinate of the function.
1) actually x is being multiplied by one, so doing the opposite you divide by one, makes no difference.
2) you are multiplying x by -1, so you divide the x-coordinate by -1, the x becomes negative, if already -ve then it will become +ve though.
3) now if anything is being done to y, or outside the bracket, it has the same affect on the y-coordinate. here you are multiplying by -1 so you will multiply all y-coordinates by -1.

hope that helps :)

oh ok..... ill try a few later on b4 the exam. BUT I DON'T think it would be that bad...if you got near 100%s then in the worst case scenario you will get around 90 so it cant be that bad Insha Allah!
m getting around 80s... :(
Inshallah! we'll ALL get 90+ ;)
r u doing M2 as well?

80s is fine for me ....just need around 25/100 UMS to get my A* in maths IF i get high on C4 which is what im planning to do..

nah basically in AS-level I did c1/c2 and s1 and now for A2 im doin c3/c4/m1...

c3 i have dun and got c4/m1 left to do...... i might be takin a gap year and therefore while im on it i might further maths which will mean ill do m2 probz too
oh GREAT!! (y) wat were ur oder unit marks if u need just 25?
C4 is hard.... i got tensed up during da paper n messed it up :cry: :(
i need 63 :p

oh! i see :) i did C1, C2, C3 for AS and C4, M1, M2 for A2 :)

thanks my results were from the help of Allah (honestly speaking)
well yh wat u heard is kinda of right....c3 and c4 need to be exceptionally high like above 90+ to get A* and stuff like that....

well according to what i know...I Should be on for an A* jus need a decent mark on c4 like around 84 or soemthing because of my 96 in c3 and needa get m1 sorted to around 25 but ill aim for better Insha Allah. I want to get the A* but lets see Insha Allah everything will work out for both of us....im gnna go and get some work sorted out Insha Allah. take care! speak to u soon. Allah Hafiz
