Hello!

When a variable equals a number, you substitute in that number wherever the variable is. So, in this case, since k = 3, substitute in 3 wherever k appears in the equation.

15 / k

15 / 3

Now, divide 15 by 3. To do this, ask yourself how many times 3 goes into 15. It would be 5, as 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 15. (So essentially 5 3's go into 15, so it equals 5)

15 / 3 = 5

Therefore, your answer is 5.

Hope this helps!

Choose the graph which matches the function. (2 points) <br> f(x) = 3x-4

The last image is the graph of $y = 3^x$

In fact, it is an increasing exponential function, and it passes through the points $(0,1)$ , which reflects the fact that $3^0=1$ and $(1,3)$ , which reflects the fact that $3^1=3$ .

Now, $y = 3^{x-4}$ is a child of the parent function we just described. Precisely, it is the result of the transformation $f(x) \to f(x-4)$

In general, every time you perform a transformation like $f(x) \to f(x+k)$ , you translate the graph horizontall, k units to the left if k is positive, and k units to the right if k in negative.
