How do I graph this?

[RESmonkey]

it's a function with x= something y. I have a ti-89. I know how to solve it in terms of the Y, but I don't want to bother with that right now.

Is there a way I can graph it in this "x =" form?

What's the equation?

 

[RESmonkey]

x = (1 + y^2 )^.5

and

x = (5/3)y

Just solve it!

Genius!

That's not why I'm asking...in case there ever was a crazy function I didn't have time for (like on a test) , how would I go about doing this?

Didn't you just say you were gifted?

Do your own homework.

I know how to solve that. I just want to learn how do minimize as much grunt work on the ti-89 as possible.

1) Turn the paper sideways and flip it over.
2) Draw as y=f(x)
3) Flip paper over and trace...

WIN!

I was going to suggest using a mirror, but that might not be good for a test.

Just solve in terms of y.

edit: didn't read your post until after i posted.

edit: You can do it in your head if you wanted. It's that easy.

If you really must graph it you could do it parametrically, but since you're gifted you already knew that.

 

[hypn0tik]

Let x = Y
let y = X

Graph in terms of X and Y

^

x = (1 + y^2 )^.5
=>
x(t) = (1 + t^2 )^.5 , y(t) = t

And graphing mode to parametric from function
