Screenshot attached. :) I' need someone to please explain in detail how to find the correct answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i replied in your previous post.... i guess u didn't understand the transformation huh?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey .. why did you think that this is false ? there are two methods to find that this is true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 - if you remember how the graph of x^(1/3) looks like you can understand that this is (x-1)^(1/3) + 3 by moving it up 3 units and moving it to the right 1 unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't think this is false... the red graph IS the graph of \(\large y=\sqrt[3]{x-1}+3 \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dpalnc its true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not even and not odd in this case

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did i say it's false? please read my post... i did not say that...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes.. so you left with trying to find points on the graph and see if its agree with the equation or : if you remember how the graph of x^(1/3) looks like you can understand that this is (x-1)^(1/3) + 3 by moving it up 3 units and moving it to the right 1 unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by it i mean moving the graph of x^(1/3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was making a comment on the answer that was written... in any case, he's explaining transformations of the parent function like i mentioned in your previous post....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what you wrote here is like what i said : " trying to find points on the graph and see if its agree with the equation"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes .. this is testing the equation and comparing to the graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i think it will be good for you to think about this method as well : if you remember how the graph of x^(1/3) looks like you can understand that this is (x-1)^(1/3) + 3 by moving x^(1/3) up 3 units and moving it to the right 1 unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes.. this is the same graph shifted!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

another point in this graph is (1,3) .. you can see that this is agree with the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cube root of (2-1) + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cuberootof(9-1) + 3 = cuberootof(8) + 3 = 2 + 3 =5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

about the -9 thing - it's wrong. since its cuberootof(-10)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but if you would plug -7 you get cuberootof(-7-1) + 3 = cuberoot(-8) + 3 = -2 + 3 = 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0,2,9 ,-7 are good values to plug into x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the -9 was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand what do you mean by "to exactly what ?" what is the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the problem was with the -9 and we changed it into -7 so now its fine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you plug those values into the equation and see what is the output (y) and see if those points fit on the graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it sounds good .. you better really plug numbers like 0,2,9,-7 than 4 since they give you "easy" numbers for y but its fine this way as well

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know about shifting graphs ? you know why i said it shifted ? how could i see it ?
