Going up a few dress sizes can be caused by so many things that it's unlikely your doctor will look at weight gain alone as a potential thyroid disorder symptom. However, weight gain is one of the top reasons women show up in Dr. Millerâs office for a thyroid checkup.
Exponential Notation. Exponential notation is a method in mathematics that allows the representation of numbers in shorter form and aids in mathematical calculations. For example, 1,000,000 can be written as 1 x 10 6.
Now we are going to take a look at function notation and how it is used in Algebra. The typical notation for a function is f(x). This is read as f of x This does NOT mean f times x. This is a special notation used only for functions. However, f(x) is not the only variable used in function notation. You may see g(x), or h(x), or even b(a). You can use any letters, but they must be in the same format - a variable followed by another variable in parenthesis.
