ANSWER :
The pH level of a swimming pool indicates the level of acidity or alkalinity
of the swimming pool.
Correct Responses;
First Part: Please find attached the required graph of the pH function created with MS Excel.
The pH value is 0 when x = 1
The pH value is 1 when x = 0.1
The pH level if the hydronium ions is raised to 0.50 is approximately 0.301029996.
Second Part: The transformation that results in a y-intercept is f(x + 1), because f(0 + 1) exists and is equal to 0.
STEPS
Method by which the above responses are obtained
First part
The given pH function is f(x) = -㏒₁₀x
Where;
x = The amount of hydronium ions
A substance with a pH < 7 is acidic
A substance with a pH > 7 is alkaline
A neutral solution has pH = 7
Water is a neutral solution
The graph of the pH function created with MS Excel is attached
The table of values of the graph is as follows;
From the graph, we have;
When the pH value is 0, the hydronium ion concentration is 1
The pH value is 1 when x = 1 × 10⁻¹ = 0.1
The pH level if the hydronium ions, x = 0.5 is given from the graph as follows;
pH = f(0.5) = -㏒₁₀(0.5) ≈ 0.301029996
The pH value when the hydronium ions is 0.5 is pH ≈ 0.301029996
Second Part
Using f(x) = -㏒₁₀x as the parent function, the graph of f(x) + 1, and f(x + 1) are plotted
From the graph, we have;
The graph of f(x) + 1 = -㏒₁₀x + 1
The graph of f(x + 1) = The graph of -㏒₁₀(x + 1)
At the y-intercept, x = 0, therefore;
f(x) + 1 = f(0) + 1 = -㏒₁₀0 + 1 = Undefined
f(x + 1) = f(0 + 1) = -㏒₁₀(0 + 1) = 0
Therefore;
The transformation that results in a y-intercept is f(x + 1) because f(0 + 1) is 0, which is defined.
