Question

can someone help explain the transformations on f(x)=(x^2+5x+6)/(x^2-2x-8). The parent is f(x)=1/x

Answer 1

hi duom cow

Answer 2

i ment dumcow

Answer 3

bye dumcow

Answer 4

First factor and see if any like terms cancel out

Answer 5

then use long division to get it into the form:
\[\frac{a}{x-h} + k\]
which is a transformation of 1/x

a -- stretches horizontally
h --- shifts horizontally
k --- shifts vertically

Answer 6

I know how to cancel the terms out. You can cancel out (x+2) and you get (x+3)/(x-4). How do you do the long division?

Answer 7

medal

Answer 8

Okay. So in future equations is there any way that there could be a vertical stretch?

Answer 9

no but i faned and medal you
