Answer:
3.58
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
y = 2x + 4 -------- eq1
y = 2x - 4 -------- eq2
sanity check : both equations have same slope, so we can conclude that they are both parallel to one another.
Step 1: consider equation 1, pick any random x-value and find they corresponding y-value. we pick x = -2
This gives us y = 2(-2) + 4 = 0
Hence we get a point (x,y) = (-2,0)
Step 2: express equation 2 in general form (i.e Ax + By + C = 0)
y = 2x-4 -------rearrange---> 2x - y -4 = 0
Comparing with the general form, we get A = 2, B = -1, C = -4
Recall that the distance between 2 parallel lines is given by the attached formula (see attached picture).
substituting the values for A, B, C and (x, y) from the previous step:
d = | (2)(-2) + (-1)(0) + (-4) | / √(2² + (-1)²)
d = | -4 + 0 - 4 | / √(4 + 1)
d = | -8 | / √5
d = 8 / √5
d = 3.5777
d = 3.58 (rounded 2 dec. pl)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
transform the parent graph of f(x) = ln x into f(x) = - ln (x - 4) by shifting the parent graph 4 units to the right and reflecting over the x-axis
(???, 0): 0 = - ln (x - 4)
0 = ln (x - 4)
1 = x - 4
<u> +4 </u> <u> +4 </u>
5 = x
(5, 0)
(???, 1): 1 = - ln (x - 4)
1 = ln (x - 4)
e = x - 4
<u> +4 </u> <u> +4 </u>
e + 4 = x
6.72 = x

x > 4
(4, ∞)
Vertical asymptotes: there are no vertical asymptotes for the parent function and the transformation did not alter that
No vertical asymptotes

transform the parent graph of f(x) = 3ˣ into f(x) = - 3ˣ⁺⁵ by shifting the parent graph 5 units to the left and reflecting over the x-axis
Domain: there is no restriction on x so domain is all real number
(-∞, ∞)
Range: there is a horizontal asymptote for the parent graph of y = 0 with range of y > 0. the transformation is a reflection over the x-axis so the horizontal asymptote is the same (y = 0) but the range changed to y < 0.
(-∞, 0)
Y-intercept is when x = 0:
f(x) = - 3ˣ⁺⁵
= - 3⁰⁺⁵
= - 3⁵
= -243
Horizontal Asymptote: y = 0 <em>(explanation above)</em>
