Let g(x)=-ln(x-2), describe the parent function, and the shifts, reflections, and stretches. Give a point on the parent function and describe where it is on g(x).

Question

anonymous · Answer

parent is ln(x)

anonymous · Answer

2log(2-x)-x(log(x-2)-1) is the parent function. to find the reflection you just set the drivitive = 0

anonymous · Answer

relearning after years so thank you for the patience and the help all.

anonymous · Answer

matrix, I dont think its asking for the derivitive or integral.

anonymous · Answer

x has no coeffeicient, so it is not stretched horizontally.
(x-2) means the function is shifted 2 units to the right
the negation on the ln function reflects it vertically

anonymous · Answer

you are helping a great deal thanks CJN

anonymous · Answer

try x = 3
parent is y = ln(3)
child is y = -ln(3 - 2)

ill let you crunch the numbers

anonymous · Answer

not understanding what you are pointing out.  parent you have posted is for the function and the child is where it is on g(x)  ?
