Question

given that (2,5) is on the graph of f(x) the corresponding point for the function f(x-2)


plase help i do not know how to do

Answer 1

f(x-2) will shift all the points 2 to the right,

Answer 2

so, (2,5)---> (2+2,5) = (4,5)

Answer 3

This is one way to think about it, however I don't think its really the right way. It is not the corresponding point that changes, this is just a new function

Answer 4

@dan815 thanks can you help me more on these i have no clue how to do

Answer 5

Okay I can take a look at it, what do you need clarification on?

Answer 6

given that (-6,-5) is on the graph of f(x) find the corresponding point for the function f(x-4)

Answer 7

same kind of question

Answer 8

What do you think it is?

Answer 9

yup i still don't know how to do

Answer 10

Did you read my earlier comments?

Answer 11

ya but still do not get it

Answer 12

if f(x-2) shifts the graph 2 to the right..
f(x-4) shifts the graph ___ to the ____?

Answer 13

I have no clue bro

Answer 14

just look at the numbers, there isnt much go off on there

Answer 15

Take a guess

Answer 16

-8,-5? idk

Answer 17

... dude i mean this sentence..

Answer 18

fill in the blanks

Answer 19

if f(x-2) shifts the graph 2 to the right..
f(x-4) shifts the graph ___ to the ____?

Answer 20

2 to the right?

Answer 21

f(x-'2') the -2 is making it go 2 to the right..

Answer 22

so a -4 there will do what?

Answer 23

go to 4

Answer 24

... go to 4?

Answer 25

do you mean 4 to the righ

Answer 26

yes

Answer 27

Okay now going left or right means only a change in the x variable

Answer 28

how do you know if it goes to he right or left

Answer 29

(x,y)=(-6,5) ----> only change the x variable by 4

Answer 30

because it is f(x-4)

Answer 31

if it was f(x+4) then it would be 4 to the left

Answer 32

so is it -2,5?

Answer 33

yes

Answer 34

thas not right lol

Answer 35

okay

Answer 36

because u didnt put a -5 on the 5

Answer 37

ok can you help me on onemore just so i can see i undestand?

Answer 38

okay

Answer 39

Tell my our solution and how you go it and i will see if you are doing it right, I will return to check.

Answer 40

given that (5,-6) is on the graph of f(x) find the corresponding point for the function f(x+4)

Answer 41

is it 9,-6?

Answer 42

no wait is it 1,-6 @dan815

Answer 43

yes good job

Answer 44

it will make it shift 4 to the left so 5-4,-6= 1,-6

Answer 45

really omg thanks man i have been suck on that stuff for a while

Answer 46

sure no problem, you can get more of an understanding on what is really going on, when you get more familiar with functions.

Answer 47

bro thanks so much i owe you so much for helping me

Answer 48

no problem, you are welcome!

Answer 49

@dan815 can you help again lol?

Answer 50

given that (-9,-5) is on the graph of f(x) find the corresponding point for the function f(3x)
