Answer:

1/3n=12

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why it is 1/3n=12, is because you know that the number in front of n is 1/3. By figuring that out, you have already ruled out 3n=12 and 3n=-12. Finally, you know that 12 is a positive number leaving you with 1/3n=12.

Which function represents a translation of the parent cubic function 8 units to the left? h(x) = x3 + 8 h(x) = x3 – 8 h(x) = (x

Ksju [112]

Using the definition of the Vertical shifts of graphs of the function :

"Suppose c>0,

To graph y=f(x)+c, shift the graph of y=f(x) upward c units.

To graph y=f(x)-c, shift the graph of y=f(x) downward c units"

Again we recall the definition of Horizontal shifts of graphs:

" suppose c>0,

the graph y=f(x-c), shift the graph of y=f(x) to the right by c units

the graph y=f(x+c), shift the graph of y=f(x) to the left by c units. "

consider $f(x)=x^3$ is the parent function.

$h(x)=x^3+8$ shifts the graph $f(x)=x^3$ upward by 8 units

$h(x)=x^3-8$ shifts the graph $f(x)=x^3$ downward by 8 units

$h(x)=(x+8)^3$ shifts the graph $f(x)=x^3$ left by 8 units

$h(x)=(x-8)^3$ shifts the graph $f(x)=x^3$ right by 8 units.
