If f(x)=logx, explain the transformation that occurs when f(0.25(x-5))+3

Answer:

First, let's explain the transformations in a general way:

Vertical shift.

If we have a function f(x), a vertical shift of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

This will move the graph of f(x) up or down a distance of N units.

if N is positive, then the shift is upwards

if N is negative, then the shift is downwards.

Horizontal shift.

If we have a function f(x), a horizontal shift of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x + N)

This will move the graph of f(x) to the right or left a distance of N units.

if N is positive, then the shift is to the left

if N is negative, then the shift is to the right.

Horizontal dilation/contraction.

For a function f(x), an horizontal contraction dilation is written as:

g(x) = f(k*x)

where:

k is called the "scale factor"

If k < 1, then the graph "dilates" horizontally.

if k > 1, then the graph "contracts" horizontally.

Now, in this problem we have:

f(x) = log(x)

And the transformed function is:

g(x) = f(0.25*(x - 5)) + 3

Then, the transformations that take place here are, in order:

Vertical shift of 3 units up:

g(x) = f(x) + 3.

Horizontal shift of 5 units to the right:

g(x) = f(x - 5) + 3

Horizontal dilation of scale factor 0.25

g(x) = f( 0.25*(x - 5)) + 3

replacing f(x) by log(x) we have

g(x) = log(0.25*(x - 5)) + 3.

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rainfall when you add all 10 years of rainfall up and divide by 10 is an average of 59.946 inches of rain each year. The equation for the data is y = -0.53x + 64.45, this means that the rainfall is getting less each year at a -0.53 inches of rain each year.

x = year (2004 would be 4, etc)

Choose the best answer. The diagonals of a rectangle:
erastovalidia [21]

C.) Are the same length

<u>How you know-</u>

No matter how long the rectangle is the diagonals always will measure the same length. Think about two sides of a square, they have to equal the same length because if they were not the same then the shape wouldn't be a square.
