Question

Use the graphing tool to see what happens to the logarithmic (log base 10) function when you change more than one parameter at a time. In what ways is this new graph different from the parent graph of f(x)=log(x)? Write down your observations for each of these transformed functions. Then try a few of your own.

Answer 1

Answer:

The parent graph of g(x) = 5 log (x + 1) shifts one unit to the left and is stretched vertically by a factor of 5 .

The parent graph of g(x) = 1/5 log (1/7 x)   is stretched horizontally by a factor of 7  and then compressed vertically by a factor of 1/5 .
