[Blindmath] Nemeth symbol question

[GianniP46]

pretty sure that you are right about the 5 6 being a subscript.  This sounds 
like a composition of transformations of some sort.  A sub 0 usually means a 
reflection in the origin doesn't it?  and a T would mean a translation which 
is a shift in an x, y direction.  Those numbers are the values that you need 
to shift the graph by.
