28. - x - = +
-7 x -4 = 28
Her estimate is reasonable because there are 12 months in a year. 12×40 is 480. 480 is pretty close to 474.72
Answer:
Let's define two transformations.
Vertical translation.
If we have a function f(x), a vertical translation of N untis is written as:
g(x) = f(x) + N
If N is positive, then the translation is upwards
If N is negative, then the translation is downwards.
Horizontal translation.
If we have a function f(x), a horizontal translation of N units is written as:
g(x) = f(x - N)
if N is positive, then the translation is to the right
If N is negative, then the translation is to the left.
Now we have a function g(x) that is a transformation of a parent function f(x) (we actually do not know which parent function, so i assume f(x) = x^2) such that we have a shift right 5 units and up 3 units.
Then:
g(x) = f(x - 5) + 3
and again, using f(x) = x^2
g(x) = (x - 5)^2 + 3
gives the remainder when p is divided by q.
