Question! Screenshot attached. Need someone to explain how to get the right answer.
that red graph is the graph of the equation you have listed in the box \(\large y=\sqrt[3]{x-1}+3 \)
I suppose you got this wrong by testing some values and seeing that the x,y worked out for the given equation?
Just to be clear, you were given that graph with that equation and asked to say true or false, is that right?
Well, it's true. That graph and that equation go together.
Did you put false?
OK, we want to test a few values of x and y so we could choose 0,2,8 for x on the plus side and say -8 on the negative side and then calculate what the equation gives for y. In each case we have a match. Maybe you got confused
Actually plus/minus 9 is better than 8
No need, just test enough x and y values...
You might want to do odd/even and other things if you were trying to sketch a graph but in this case it is all given.
OK feed in -9 and we get cuberoot-8 +3 = 1
i will but after he shows you his method.... i don't like to "cut" in....
I'm done, do the same with the other values....:-)
I did
K, cuberoot(9-1) +3 = 5
Another point?
Why don't you pick an x value....
That one is OK, it's on the graph so we can see it. So plug x=4 into the given equation.
What do you get for y?
OK:-) It comes out to 4.44 so you can see on the graph that x =4 , y= 4.44 is on the curve (it's not so easy to see as the other numbers which I picked)
Ciao! (Try it with x=2)
sorry... got caught up with another problem.... the parent function \(\large f(x) =\sqrt[3]{x} \) can be transformed to the red graph you have by translating f one unit to the right and 3 units up..... \(\Large f(x-1)+3 \)
She posted it again new....
