Answer:
A horizontal translation of 5 units to the left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the parent linear function:
To shift vertically n units, we can simply add n to our function. Hence:
So, a vertical shift of 5 units up implies that n=5. So:
As given.
However, to shift a linear function horizontally, we substitute our x for (x-n), where n is the horizontal shift. So:
Where n is the horizontal shift.
For example, if we shift our parent linear function 1 unit to the right, this means that n=1. Therefore, our new function will be:
Or:
We notice that this is also a vertical shift of 1 unit downwards.
Therefore, we want a number n such that -n=5.
So, n=-5.
Therefore, it we shift our function 5 units to the left, then n=-5.
Then, our function will be:
Hence, we can achieve f(x)=x+5 from f(x)=x using a horizontal translation by translating our function 5 units to the left.
- If x = 5 is a zero of the given polynomial, then,
- (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial. [Since, x = 5 or, x - 5 = 0]
- Now, divide the polynomial with (x - 5) using long division method. (See the picture)
- We get (x^2 - x - 6) as the quotient.
- Now, factorise the above polynomial:
- (x^2 - x - 6)
- = (x^2 - 3x + 2x - 6)
- = x(x - 3) + 2(x - 3)
- = (x - 3)(x + 2)
- Therefore, x^3 − 6x^2 − x + 30 = (x − 5)(x − 3)(x + 2)
