Function transformation involves changing the form of a function

The function g(x) is \mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}

The function is given as:

\mathbf{f(x) = 3^x}

g(x) is an exponential function that passes through points (-2,2) and (-1,4).

An exponential function is represented as:

\mathbf{y = ab^x}

At point (-2,2), we have:

\mathbf{2 = ab^{-2}}

At point (-1,4), we have:

\mathbf{4 = ab^{-1}}

Divide both equations

\mathbf{\frac 42=\frac{ab^{-1}}{ab^{-2}}}

Simplify

\mathbf{2=\frac{b^{-1}}{b^{-2}}}

Apply law of indices

\mathbf{2=b^{-1+2}}

\mathbf{2=b}

Rewrite as:

\mathbf{b =2}

Substitute 2 for b in \mathbf{2 = ab^{-2}}

\mathbf{2 =a(2^{-2})}

This gives

\mathbf{2 =a(\frac 14)}

Multiply both sides by 4

\mathbf{a = 8}

Substitute 8 for (a) and 2 for (b) in \mathbf{y = ab^x}

\mathbf{y = 8(2)^x}

Express as a function

\mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}

Hence, the function g(x) is \mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person is 22 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A lifeguard sees a person in distress.The eye level of the lifeguard is 15 feet above the ground. Angle of depression is 34°.

To find: Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person.

Solution : If we draw a triangle then tan∅ = \frac{height}{base}

               Here base is the horizontal distance.

               Now we put the values in the formula.

               tan 34° = \frac{15}{base}

              Or Base = \frac{15}{tan34}

                             = \frac{15}{0.675} = 22.22 feet

So the answer is 22 feet.
