Silently he crept through jagged thornbushes. Bare feet moved swiftly over hot, arid soil to the edge of a waterhole where the kudu was drinking. The great animal suddenly looked up, spiral horns curving sharply into the endless African sky. Nsue1 did not reach for his pouch of poisoned arrows. He had no heart for killing. This would not be the day he would change his childish boyhood name.

Answer:
- horizontally compressed by a factor of 2 and translated upward by 3 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
A multiplier of x in a function transformation is effectively a compression factor. That is f(2x) will have half the horizontal extent of f(x) for the same values of x.
Addition of a constant the the value of a function effectively translates the graph upward by that amount. The graph of y = log(2x) +3 has been translated upward 3 units.
The graph of y=log(x) has been horizontally compressed and translated upward to produce the graph of y = log(2x) +3.
Remember that the slope intercept formula is:
y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
so...
m = 0
b = -2
^^^Plug these numbers into formula
y = 0*x - 2
y = 0 - 2
y = -2
Hope this helped!
