Suppose that the <u>function</u> f(x) is the <u>parrent</u> function and the<u> graph</u> of the function g(x)=f(x)-a can be obtained from the graph of the parrent function f(x) by <u>shifting down</u> a units.
Rewrite the expression for the function in the following way:
This shows that the shift down is made by 17 units.
Answer: 17 units
a. The inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)
b. The inverse image of g(x) is
c. The inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9
<h3 /><h3>The domain of T</h3>Since T = {x ∈ R : 0 ≤ [x^2 − 25} ⇒ x² - 25 ≥ 0
⇒ x² ≥ 25
⇒ x ≥ ±5
⇒ -5 ≤ x ≤ 5.
<h3>Inverse image of f(x)</h3>
The inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)
f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3x³
Let f(x) = y.
So, y = 3x³
Dividing through by 3, we have
y/3 = x³
Taking cube root of both sides, we have
x = ∛(y/3)
Replacing y with x we have
y = ∛(x/3)
Replacing y with f⁻¹(x), we have
So, the inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)
<h3>Inverse image of g(x)</h3>
The inverse image of g(x) is
g : R+ → R defined by g(x) = ln(x).
Let g(x) = y
y = ln(x)
Taking exponents of both sides, we have
Replacing x with y, we have
Replacing y with g⁻¹(x), we have
So, the inverse image of g(x) is
The inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9
h : R → R defined by h(x) = x − 9
Let y = h(x)
y = x - 9
Adding 9 to both sides, we have
y + 9 = x
Replacing x with y, we have
x + 9 = y
Replacing y with h⁻¹(x), we have
So, the inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9
