Question

The linear functions f(x) and g(x) are represented on the graph, where g(x) is a transformation of f(x):

Part A: Describe two types of transformations that can be used to transform f(x) to g(x). (2 points)

Part B: Solve for k in each type of transformation. (4 points)

Part C: Write an equation for each type of transformation that can be used to transform f(x) to g(x). (4 points)

Answer 1

see below

Explanation:

Part A

We can shift f(x) to the left or shift it up

Part B

f(x+k) for a shift to the left

f(x) + k for a shift up

Part C

Looking at shifting f(x) to g(x) by going left, we are shifting 6 units to the left

f(x+6) will shift f(x) 6 units to the left

g(x) = f(x+6)

We can all shift f(x) up, we can shift up 18 units

f(x) +18 will shift the function up 18 units

g(x) = f(x) +18
