Math Problem Statement

The points (−2, 3) and (5, −4) are on the graph of the function y = f(x). Find the corresponding points on the graph obtained by the given transformations. the graph of f shifted up 1 unit and to the left 2 units

Solution

To find the corresponding points after shifting the graph of the function y=f(x)y = f(x) up by 1 unit and to the left by 2 units, we need to apply these transformations to each of the given points.

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Shifting Up by 1 Unit:

    • When a graph is shifted up by 1 unit, the yy-coordinates of each point increase by 1.
  2. Shifting Left by 2 Units:

    • When a graph is shifted to the left by 2 units, the xx-coordinates of each point decrease by 2.

Applying the Transformations

Given points:

  1. (2,3)(-2, 3)
  2. (5,4)(5, -4)

Point 1: (2,3)(-2, 3)

  • Shift left by 2 units: x=22=4x' = -2 - 2 = -4
  • Shift up by 1 unit: y=3+1=4y' = 3 + 1 = 4
  • New point: (4,4)(-4, 4)

Point 2: (5,4)(5, -4)

  • Shift left by 2 units: x=52=3x' = 5 - 2 = 3
  • Shift up by 1 unit: y=4+1=3y' = -4 + 1 = -3
  • New point: (3,3)(3, -3)

Final Answer

The corresponding points on the transformed graph are:

  1. (4,4)(-4, 4)
  2. (3,3)(3, -3)
