Question

Determine g(x) from f(x)=x^2 +5 upward 11 units?

Answer 1

all you need to do is add 11 to the equation of f(x)
so g(x) = x^2 + 5 + 11
g(x) = ?

Answer 2

add 11 to the 5?

Answer 3

Yes :)
Do you know how to figure out these equations with translations?

Answer 4

not a clue me and math don't get along

Answer 5

How does this one look?

Answer 6

do you know how to graph a parabola given the equation?

Answer 7

They're asking if you can add f(x) and g(x)

f(x) + g(x)
can you plug f(x) = -6x -1 into the upper equation?
What do you get?

Answer 8

what happened to the -1?

Answer 9

nvm I just looked at it and answered my own question

Answer 10

What was your answer?

Answer 11

ok now I'm lost

Answer 12

Please stick with me!

Back to where I was:
f(x) + g(x)
This is what they want.
Do you get this?

Answer 13

(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)
Do you understand why?

Answer 14

so its b vise d?

Answer 15

No, you need to work this problem out to understand . Not guessing the answer

Answer 16

Trust me its better off if I guess I have a TBI you may show me then I will forget how it was done

Answer 17

but if you get this once and repeatedly do it again, maybe 1/2 or even 1/8 of it sticks :o
practice maynot make perfect, but better

anyways, plug -6x-1 into f(x) of this equation:
f(x) + g(x)
you'd get
-6x-1 + g(x)

g(x) = 4x^2
can you plug that into g(x)? What would you get?

Answer 18

plug 4x^2 into g(x) of this equation
-6x-1 + g(x)
I worked out more than half of this for you already.

Answer 19

g(4x^2) like that?

Answer 20

I mean g(x) = 4x^2 so replace g(x) with 4x^2 in the equation:
-6x-1 + g(x)

Answer 21

-6x-1+4x^2 like this?

Answer 22

Yes! :))) <3

Answer 23

That's the answer! :) Good job! <3

Answer 24

Answer choice A I believe! Great work! :))

Answer 25

tell me if I am wrong but these are the exact same or no?

Answer 26

You're right! They are the exact same :)

Answer 27

Ok, here we go.
Do you know the basic equation of a parabola?

Answer 28

heck no TBI

Answer 29

was it wrong?

Answer 30

well maybe this will stick a little for some time.

Answer 31

equation of parabola =
\[f(x) =a(x-h)^{2} +k\]
where vertex = (h,k)

Answer 32

what grade are you in may I ask?

Answer 33

college... I have a brain injury

Answer 34

we need to rewrite the equation
-3x^2 + 7x + 7 = f(x)
(-3x^2 + 7x ) +7 = f(x)

Answer 35

well did you guess the answer or work it out? It's right though :)

Answer 36

Aw that sucks... how did that even happen? That's horrible, man! I hope you feel better.

Answer 37

its an injury that will never go away it lintels memory loss and it causes things to be harder to learn I got it in the Marine Corps
