The graph of g(x) contains the point (7,12). What point must be on the graph of the function f(x) if g(x) = 2f(x-3)+4?

1 answer:

5 0

First take out 2 as a factor
g(x) = 2[f(x-3)+2]

f(x-3) means a shift of +3 in the x direction
+2 means a shift of +2 in the y direction
2[f] means a stretch of scale factor 2 in the y direction

so (7+3, 2(12+2)) -> (10,28)

Pani-rosa [81]

I assume that the equation is supposedly written as, y = (76)(1.013^x). This means that the population of the United States increases by 1.3% every year. If we substitute 0 to the value of x,
y = 76(1.013^0) = 76(1) = 76
I assume that the unit for y in the equation is million. Therefore, the answer is letter B. 76 million.

Answer:

x = 2, and 6

x = 2 , 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic function to analyze is: $y = -x^2+8x-12$

In order to find where the corresponding parabola intercepts the x axis, we set it equal to zero (y = 0):

$y = -x^2+8x-12\\0 = -x^2+8x-12\\x^2-8x+12=0$

This equation is easy to solve by factoring. We look for a air of integer numbers whose product equals the constant term "12", and whose combinig renders the coefficient of the middle term of the trinomial "-8".

The two such numbers are "-2" and "-6". We use them to split the middle term, and then solve by factoring by grouping:

$x^2-8x+12=0\\x^2-2x-6x+12=0\\(x^2-2x)+(-6x+12)=0\\x(x-2)-6(x-2)=0\\(x-2)(x-6)=0$
