Answer: n is a positive odd number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, we know that the function is something like:
f(x)=a(x+k)^1/n + c
In the graph we can see two thigns:
All the values of the graph are positive values (even for the negative values of x), but in the left side we can see that the function decreases and is different than the right side.
So this is not an even function, then n must be an odd number (n odd allows us to have negative values for y = f(x) that happen when x + k is negative).
Also, we can see that the function increases, if n was a negative number, like: n = -N
we would have:
So in this case x is in the denominator, so as x increases, we would see that the value of y decreases, but that does not happen, so we can conclude that the value of n must be positive.
Then n is a positive odd number.
