Functions A and C and D are translations - this means that they are exactly the same shape as f(x), but are displaced on the axes. A translation in the y-direction by k units is represented by f(x) + k, and a translation in the x-direction by k units is represented by f(x - k). This can be summarised in column vector notation:

A translation of the graph y = f(x), by the vector \left[\begin{array}{ccc}a\\b\end{array}\right] results in the graph defined by y - b = f(x - a). This is done by replacing x with (x - a) and y with (y - b). Finally it is rearranged to make y the subject, as is often the convention: y = f(x - a) + b.

Since the graph needs to change shape, this requires a 'stretch'. A stretch is performed by multiplying x or y by a constant, which here is k.

To stretch in the x-direction by a factor n, replace x with (1/n)x. Similarly to stretch in the y-direction by a factor n, replace y with (1/n)y.

For example to stretch y = f(x) by factor n in the x-direction, it would become y = f((1/n)x).

A simple quadratic graph like y = x^2 behaves slightly differently to most other graphs, in that it can narrowed by a stretch in the x or y direction. This means that a more convenient option is to perform a stretch in the y direction, since the multiplier lies outside the function notation. The stretching factor is 3, so we replace y with (1/3)y:

(1/3)y = f(x)
y = 3f(x)

Since k = 3, this becomes

y = kf(x)

... and hence the correct answer is B

MZRSK = x + 53, m KST = x + 109,<br> and mZRST = 156º<br><br><br> Find x.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

-3 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are not given a midpoint, we use the Angle Addition Postulate:

156 = [x + 109] + [x + 53]

156 = 162 + 2x

-162 - 162

_______________

−6 = 2x

___ ___

2 2

−3 = x

[−3 + 53] + [−3 + 109] = 156

50 106

156 = 156 ☑

Therefore, -3 = xis a genuine statement.
