    How to linearise translated and dilated surd functions?

    A straight line. But i am rather looking to do something like this; Kepler's third law for example, it can be graphed as shown in the picture. I want to do something like that to form a linear relationship rather than graphing the functions themselves if you get what i mean.

    How to linearise translated and dilated surd functions?

    Sorry, i did not understand that. How does that work?

    How to linearise translated and dilated surd functions?

    (y-4)^2 / 81 = 23 + 7x. Got it. But the problem is, how can i graph this to create a linear relationship. Thats what i am stuck on.

    How to linearise translated and dilated surd functions?

    Couldn't find it. y = 4 + 9(23+2x)^0.5 y-4 = 9(23+2x)^0.5 (y-4)^2 = (9(23+2x)^0.5)^2 y^2 - 8y +16 = 1863 +162x y^2 -8y - 1867 = 162x

    How to linearise translated and dilated surd functions?

    Yeah but when i try to expand after squaring both sides, i get a two x values. For example, continuing from the example i gave above, if i square both sides, i get y^2 =567x + 1879 +72(√7x+23). I don't know how to work with that. Also, when i square after rearranging, i get: 162x = y^2 -8y...

    How to linearise translated and dilated surd functions?

    So, in Physics, we were to learning about linearising data of a practical. We know that if the graph of the data of a practical or experiments represents a surd function (y=x^0.5), then it can be linearised by graphing y^2 against x. Therefore, y^2 would be directly proportional to x. However...

    Relationship between Launch height and range of a projectile

    Homework Statement In a practical that we conducted, we were investigating the relationship between Launch height and the range (horizontal distance it travels) of a projectile. We launched a projectile from various heights and measured the horizontal range it traveled before reaching the...

    B Relationship between launch height and range

    In a projectile motion practical, we had to investigate the relationship between launch of projectile and the range it travels. Increasing the height will obviously increase the range. However, we are trying to understand why it does in a more scientific way. We already know that increasing...
