Explanation:

A) For the function ...

f(x) = mx + b

the vertical translation by k makes the function ...

g(x) = f(x) + k = mx + b + k

This can be rewritten as ...

g(x) = m(x +k/m) +b = f(x+k/m)

That is, the vertical translation by k is equivalent to a horizontal translation by -k/m, where m is the slope of the linear function.

___

B) For a vertical translation of 3, the equivalent horizontal translation is ...

-k/m for k=3

= -3/m . . . . . where m is the slope of the function

_____

Please note that there is no equivalent for m=0.

The parabolic arch of a bridge over a one-way road can be described by the equation y = -x^2 + 6, where x and y ar emeasured in
Vladimir [108]
So check the picture below

if we check the solutions or zeros for the equation, we get \bf y=-x^2+6\implies 0=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{6}

and as you can see in the picture, the value of "x" when y = 3.5, or the height of the truck is  \bf y=-x^2+6\implies 3.5=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{2.5}

the truck, ends up with a clearance of \bf \sqrt{2.5}-1.5 on either side, so, the maximum clearance, the truck can have, those two clearances added together, \bf 2(\sqrt{2.5}-1.5)
