question
A) what transformation produces graph g from f? = because it is +3, you shift 3 units to the left.B) what transformations produces graph h from f? = because it is -4, you shift 4 units to the right.
answer
Describe the transformations that produce the graphs of g and h from the graph of f. f(x)=x² A) g(x)= (x+3)² B) h(x)= (x-4)²
question
1. first find the basic function in the equation, which is f(x)=√x 2. in comparison to f(x), 2f(x) is a vertical stretching of the graph of f(x) by a 2 units. 3. the value 3 in the equation is the y-value. therefore, you shift the graph up by 3 units.
answer
Graph the function: y=2√x +3
question
1. start with the graph of the basic function in the equation, which is y=√x. 2. compare y=√x and y=√(x-7)... the difference is that the second one with a -7. 3.this means it is the same graph, but with a horizontal shift of 7 units to the right.
answer
Graph the function using the techniques of shifting, compressing, stretching, and/or reflecting. h(x)=√(x-7)
question
the answer is y=√-x +1 because if you reflect a function across the y-axis, its x values will be negative.
answer
write the function whose graph is the graph of y=√x +1 but is reflected about the y-axis.
question
1. starting with f(x)=x³, shift 2 units left, to shift left the sign must be positive. so the equation is now f(x)=(x+2)³2.starting with f(x)=(x+2)³, stretch vertically by 3, this number always goes in the front of the equation. so now the equation is f(x)=3(x+2)³ 3. starting with f(x)=3(x+2)³, reflect about the y-axis. when you reflect about the y-axis the x values become negative. so the equation is now f(x)= 3(-x+2)³ 4. starting with f(x)= 3(-x+2)³, shift up by 6 units, this always goes at the end of the equation & if you are shifting up the sign has to be a +. so the final equation is= g(x)= 3(-x+2)³+6
answer
write an equation for a function whose graph fits the description given below: the graph of f(x)=x³ is shifted 2 units left, stretched vertically by a factor of 3, reflected in the y-axis, and shifted 6 units up. g(x)=?
question
1. first find points on the graph of f and write them down: (0,0) 2. next, transform the graph by the differences in the equation of g. shift vertically by 2 units.
answer
A graph of y=f(x) is given. No formula is given for f. Make a graph of the function: g(x)= f(x)+2

question
to solve this problem first plug in the equations of f and g into the formulas: a.

(f*g)(x) --> 15x³+18x² domain: (-∞,∞) d. (f/g)(x) --> (5x+6)/(3x²) domain: all real #'s excluding values of x for which the denominator=0. 0 is the only value to make 3x²=0, so we only exclude 0. = (-∞,0)∪(0,∞)
