Answer:
The graph is a horizontal shift of the function two units to the left.
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is a horizontal shift of the function two units to the left.
Remember that horizontal shifts appear as additions of a constant "c" to the x-coordinate inside the function. When the constant is negative the shift is to the right in |c| units, and when the constant is positive (like in this case) the shift is to the left in |c| units.
To find a common denominator, you have to find a GCM ( greatest common multiple)
First, you will start with distributive property. on the right side you will distribute 4 into x and 3.
the equation will become:
2x + 22 = 4x + 12
then you have to get x on only one side of the equal sign. subtract 2x from 4x and the equation becomes:
22 = 2x + 12
subtract 12 from 22:
10 = 2x
divide 10 by 2:
5 = x
or
x = 5
