Math Problem Statement
Solution
It appears that you uploaded the same image again. Based on my previous explanation and after re-examining the question in the image, the transformations for are still the same:
- Horizontal Shift: Right by 7 units (due to ).
- Vertical Shrinking: Shrunk by a factor of (because of the coefficient).
- Vertical Shift: Upward by 6 units (because of the +6).
Thus, the correct answer is B: "The graph of should be horizontally shifted to the right by 7 units, shrunk vertically by a factor of , and shifted vertically up by 6 units."
Would you like more details or have further questions?
Follow-up Questions:
- What is the difference between horizontal and vertical shifts in function transformations?
- Why does multiplying a function by a number less than 1 result in a vertical compression?
- How would the transformation change if the function had instead of inside the parentheses?
- Can you explain how these transformations would affect the shape of the graph visually?
- How would the graph change if the function were ?
Tip:
Always remember that horizontal transformations (inside the parentheses) affect the x-direction in a counterintuitive way: shifts right, while shifts left.
