<em>The question doesn't show any graph, but I have included it to help you with the problem.</em>
Answer:
<em>The new graph will be shifted up by 3 units</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Graph of a Real Function</u>
The total cost of belonging to the book club depends on one fixed cost, the initial joining fee, and a variable cost, depending on the number of books purchased. Call C the total cost and x the number of purchased books, then
By giving x some values, we get the corresponding values of C and then we can plot the graph as a blue line, in the image provided below.
If the joining fee goes up by $3, the new function is
The graph is also shown in the image, but with a red line. We can see the graph is shifted up by 3 units in the y-axis, but the slope remains the same, as the cost per book hasn't changed
