Answer:
See below for a graph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the parent function g(x) = log₅(x), which has a vertical asymptote at x=0, and goes through the points (1, 0), (5, 1), (25, 2).
Then this function is
... f(x) = g(2(x+6)) +2
That is, the function is horizontally compressed by a factor of 2, shifted left 6 units, and shifted up 2 units. This moves the points listed above to ...
... (-5.5, 2), (-3.5, 3), (6.5, 4)
The graph shows the parent function and the listed points in blue, then the transformed function and the corresponding points in red.
