Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2(x + 5) = 4 ← distribute the parenthesis by - 2

- 2x = 14 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 7

Find g(x) where g(x) is the translation 3 units right of f(x)=x^2
Fed [463]

Answer:

  g(x) = x^2 -6x +9

Step-by-step explanation:

A function f(x) translated right h units and up k units will become ...

  g(x) = f(x -h) +k

You want the function f(x) = x^2 to be translated right h=3 units, so it will become ...

  g(x) = f(x -3) = (x -3)^2

  g(x) = x^2 -6x +9
