suppose f(x) = x2, how does the range of g(x) = f(x) + k compare to the range of f(x)? Where k is any constant value.

First: Please use the symbol " ^ " to indicate exponentiation. Your f(x) should be x^2, not x2. "x^2" reads "the square of x."

Let y equal g(x) = f(x) + k: y = g(x) = f(x) + k. See that "k" is a y value?
If k=1, we merely translate the graph of f(x)=x^2 UP one scale division to obtain the graph of g(x) = f(x) + 1.

So, how does the range of g(x) compare to the range of f(x)?

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The graph of amount Tom owes his friend after a given time, t, is a straight line graph with a negative slope

Please find attached the required example of a possible graph that shows the amount Tom owes his friend

Reason:

Let A represent the amount of money Tom buys the boat with, let x

represent the amount of equal payment made and y represents the

amount Tom owes the friend after a given time, t, we have;

y = A - x·t

Therefore, the slope of the graph formed is -x, the y-intercept of the graph

is A, from which the graph that gives the amount of money, in dollars, Tom
