we are given
we can multiply -1 on both sides of second equation
we can see that
both equations becomes same
so, they are coincident............Answer
Answer:
a) f(x) = (-1/3)x + 8
b) f(x) = (1/3)x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 1/3x - 8
a) To reflect across the x axis multiply f(x) by -1.
-f(x) = -1 (1/3x - 8)
= (-1/3)x + 8
b) to translate up 17 units add 17 to f(x)
f(x) + 17=
= 1/3x - 8 + 17
= 1/3x + 9
