<u>Given:</u>
Take west to be the positive direction. The height of a sloped roof above the place where you stand is 12 feet. If you move 3 feet west, the height is 10 feet.
We need to determine the slope.
Let x denote the standing place.
Let y denote the height.
Writing the given as coordinates, we get;
(0,12) and (3,10)
<u>Slope</u>:
The slope can be determined using the formula,
Substituting the coordinates (0,12) and (3,10), we have;
Thus, the slope is
Step-by-step explanation:
A transformation(s) of a parent function is
where a is vertical compression/stretched or reflection
B is horinzotnal compression/stretch or reflection
C is horinzontal translation
D is vertical translation.
The parent function is
First, we stretched this by 7
so we have
We need to shift this 12 units to the left so we have
We need to reflect this across x axis so we get
We need to shift this downwards 15 so we get
or because tan is a odd function you could say
