Answer:
g(x)=4|x-5|
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the question wants you to <em>shift 5 units to the right</em>, all you need to do is add that - 5 inside the absolute value with the x, and it will shift the function 5 units to the right. I even attached a picture to prove that when adding - 5 inside the absolute value with the x, it shifts the function g(x) 5 units to the right.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x ≈ - 10.65, x ≈ - 5.35
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x + 8)² - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )
(x + 8)² = 7 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 8 = ± ( subtract 8 from both sides )
x = - 8 ± , thus
x = - 8 - ≈ - 10.65
x = - 8 + ≈ - 5.35
