Answer:

The graph of function g is the graph of function f shifted 6 units up.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 2^x

g(x) =2^x + 6

Required

Compare g(x) to f(x)

Substitute f(x) = 2^x in g(x) =2^x + 6

g(x) = f(x) + 6

<em>This implies that f(x) is shifted 6 units upward to give g(x)</em>

charity is four times as old as her daughter. she is also six years younger than her husband. The sum of their ages ten years to
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

36years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let charity present age be x

Charity daughter present age be y

Charity husband present age be z

If the sum of their ages ten years to come is 117, then;

10+x+10+y+10+z = 117

30+x+y+z = 117

x+y+z = 87 ... 1

If charity is four times as old as her daughter, then;

x = 4y

y = x/4 ... 2

If she is also six years younger than her husband, then;

x = z- 6

z = x+6 .. 3

Substitute 2 and 3 into 1;

x + x/4 + (x+6) = 87

Multiply through by 4

4x + x + 4(x+6) = 4(87)

5x+4x+24 = 348

9x = 348 - 24

9x = 324

x = 324/9

x = 36

hence Charity is 36years old today
