please help me determine this
the equation of g(x) that results from translating the function f(x) = (x+8)^2 to the right 9 units.
Five consecutive questions without any sign on your part that you have attempted these!
Looks an awful lot like plain ol' "homework dumping"
Exactly where is your difficulty with these trivial review questions?
Thank you Reiny. I thought this website was to get help. I've done quite afew assignments it's my 6th week in online classes and this is over my head. Our live tutor is so hard to get into on our website I thought I would try here while I wait inline. Just needed some help or I'll get behind.
No I'm not good at math at all, I graduated 40 years ago. No I didn't do any of these because I needed help. Homework dumping I've never heard of but I can understand what it is. I wish I could dump my homework, but these are only a few of over 100 problems for my assignment. Thank you
To determine the equation of the function g(x) that results from translating the function f(x) = (x + 8)^2 to the right 9 units, you need to understand the concept of function translation.
When a function is translated horizontally (left or right), you modify the original function by changing the argument (x) inside the function. In this case, we're moving the function to the right, so we need to subtract a value from the argument x.
To translate a function to the right by n units, where n is a positive value, you subtract n from the argument x. So in this case, we will subtract 9 from x.
Therefore, the equation of the function g(x) is:
g(x) = (x - 9 + 8)^2
Simplifying this expression, we get:
g(x) = (x - 1)^2
So, the equation of g(x) that results from translating the function f(x) = (x + 8)^2 to the right 9 units is g(x) = (x - 1)^2.
