Move the decimal so there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The number of decimal places you move will be the exponent on the 10. If the decimal is being moved to the right, the exponent will be negative. If the decimal is being moved to the left, the exponent will be positive.
so
0.00005 meters --------> 5 x 10^-5 meters

Given a graph for the transformation of f(x) in the format g(x) = f(x) + k, determine the k value.

enyata [817]

Answer:

k=6

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabola that opens up and passes through (-3,-3) will have equation,

$f(x) = {x}^{2} - 12$

The parabola the opens up a d passes through (-3,3) will have equation:

$g(x) = {x}^{2} - 6$

We want to determine the value of k, for which,

$g(x) = f(x) + k$

We rewrite g(x) in terms of f(x) to get:

${x}^{2} - 6 = {x}^{2} - 12 + 6$

$g(x) \to({x}^{2} - 6 )= f(x) \to ({x}^{2} - 12 )+k \to6$

Therefore;

$g(x) = f(x) + 6$

Hence k=6
