Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
- The equation of the red quadratic graph is
.
- This is the parent quadratic function or the base of the quadratic functions.
- This red quadratic graph has been dilated by a certain scale factor to obtain the blue graph. Recall that, when the scale factor is a fraction, such that
the graph is stretched horizontally.
- The dilated graph then becomes wider than the parent function.
- From the given function equations, the possible value of k can only be
.
- Therefore the blue graph has equation:
- The correct answer is D.
Answer:
B the range, the x- and y-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
the domain stays the same : all values of x are possible out of the interval (-infinity, +infinity).
but the range changes, as for the original function y could only have positive values - even for negative x.
the new function has a first term (with b) that can get very small for negative x, and then a subtraction of 2 makes the result negative.
the y-intercept (x=0) of the original function is simply y=1, as b⁰=1.
the y-intercept of the new function is definitely different, because the first term 3×(b¹) is larger than 3, because b is larger than 1. and a subtraction of 2 leads to a result larger than 1, which is different to 1.
the original function has no x-intercept (y=0), as this would happen only for x = -infinity. and that is not a valid value.
the new function has an x-intercept, because the y-values (range) go from negative to positive numbers. any continuous function like this must therefore have an x-intercept (again, y = the function result = 0)
