Answer:

y=\log_{\frac{1}{2}}(x+2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the equation of the transformed logarithm as y=\log_a (x-b).

For the point (-2,0):

0=\log_a (-2-b).

For the point (2,-2):

-2=\log_a (2-b).

Solve the system of equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}0=\log_a (-2-b)\\-2=\log_a (2-b)\end{array}\right.\Rightarrow \left\{\begin{array}{l}b=-2\\-2=\log_a 4\end{array}\right.

Then

a^{-2}=a^{\log_a 4} \Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{a^2}=4,\ a=\dfrac{1}{2}.

The equation of the function is y=\log_{\frac{1}{2}}(x+2).

The correct answer is: f(x)=\frac{-2log(x+3)}{log(5)}

(In compact form: f(x) = -2log_5(x+3))

Explanation:

Follow these steps...

1. As it is a logarithmic graph, but reflected along x-axis, the general form of the function will be the following:

f(x) = -a*log(x) + k --- (A)

Where <em>a</em> represent the scale of the logarithmic graph, and <em>k </em>represents whether the graph is shifted down or up.

The negative sign indicates that the graph is reflected along the x-axis.

2. The vertical asymptote is at x = -3, the equation (A) will now become the following:

f(x) = -a*log(x + 3) + k --- (B)

The (x+3) part of the above equation shows that the graph is shifted 3 units towards left.

3. Now we need to find <em>k</em> and <em>a</em>. For finding <em>k, </em>plug in the point (-2,0) in equation (B):

0 = -a*log(-2+3) + k

0 = -a*0 + k

k = 0

4. For finding <em>a</em>, plug in the point (2,-2) and the value of k=0 in equation (B):

-2 = -a*log(2+3) + 0

a = 2/log(5)


Now plug in the values of <em>a</em> and <em>k </em>in equation (B), you will get the answer:

f(x) = -(2/log(5))*log(x+3) + 0


Therefore, the correct answer is:

f(x)=\frac{-2log(x+3)}{log(5)}

or, in compact form:

f(x) = -2log_5(x+3)

True expression -50x+ 100 represents the balance, in dollars, of a bank account after x months. What is the range of change, in
JulijaS [17]

Let

x--------> the number of months

y-------> represents the balance, in dollars, of a bank account

we know that

y=-50x+100

the rate of change is equal to the slope of the line

so

m=-50\frac{\$}{month}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the rate of change is -50\frac{\$}{month}

B.
if it's is a right angle triangle, two of the x-coordinate of the points must be the same however with the points given, we can tell that the x coordinates are different , the two points are not vertical hence it does not form a right angle triangle.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

type 2 in the first box,

13/4 in the second box, and

-9/8 in the third one

Step-by-step explanation:Notice that you are asked to write the following quadratic expression in vertex form, so you need to find the "x" value of the vertex, and then the "y" value of the vertex:

x_{vertex}= -b/2a

Which in our case is: -13/4

and the value of the y for the vertex is obtained using the functional expression when x equals -13/4:

f(-13/4)= -9/8

Then your expression for this quadratic should be:

f(x)=2\,(x+\frac{13}{4} )^2+(-\frac{9}{8})

Then type 2 in the first box, 13/4 in the second box, and -9/8 in the third one
