I can answer virtually any kind of question dealing with of Math 536 and below, my forte being in parabolic functions and analytical geometry. I'm currently learning Calculus I, and cannot answer questions that deal with subject matter more advanced than that.

Experience
I am neither a professor nor a teacher of this subject. I am merely a student who is gifted at mathematics and enjoys being of service to his community. I frequently tutor people in math and the results are usually great.

Subject: Linear Functions

Question
How do you graph x=3, and how do you graph -19<3x+2<20. but the the greater that signs are all less than or equal to.

Answer
Hi Mike!

x=3 is not a function.  It has what is known as an "undefined slope."  This is really a vertical line, perpendicular to the x-axis, where every value of x is 3.

-19<3x+2<20 is just a linear function whose range is from -19 to 20 inclusively because of the signs you described:  [-19,20].

Thanks for asking,
Azeem
