Question 213460: I have a question that I have been working on and I am wondering if I am on the right path. The question is as follows: Is the graph f(x) = x^1171 - 5^109 + 3 y-axis symmetric, origin symmetric, or neither one. Explain your answer.
When working out the problem and replacing x with -x the reworked problem does not come out the same as the original so it is not y-axis symmetric. Then when I multiple (-1) to both sides it does not come out to be the same as the original problem either. So, I am saying that f(x)=x^11171 - 5^109 +3 is neither y-axis or origin symmetric. Am I right with my analysis?

Question 214357: Hi again, can anyone show me how to use Gaussian Elimination? I have to use it to solve some of the following eqaution. Help with the whole equation would be most apreciated.
Solve the following system of equations by hand. Use the Gaussian Elimination, on the augmeted matrix, and write the row operation you used next to each row.
Help with steps and added notes would be really appreciated.
