Math Problem Statement
Let f(x) = 4Vx If g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted up 3 units and right 3 units, write a formula for g(x)
Solution
To find the formula for , the function needs to be shifted up 3 units and to the right 3 units.
Step-by-step process:
-
Shift right by 3 units:
To shift a function horizontally to the right by 3 units, replace with in the function.
So, shifting to the right by 3 units gives:
-
Shift up by 3 units:
To shift a function vertically up by 3 units, add 3 to the entire function.
So, shifting up by 3 units gives:
Thus, the formula for is:
