Question

please help thank you so much loves.
Identify the x-intercept of g(x).
f(x) = (x – 4)^2
g(x) = f(x – 5)

Answer 1

g(x)=f(x-5)=((x-5)-4)^2 = (x-9)^2
g(x) = (x-9)^2, the x-intercept will be the root of g(x)

Answer 2

The root of a function g(x) is a value of x such that g(x) = 0

Answer 3

got it?

Answer 4

no I am confused

Answer 5

But did u understand how i found g(x) = (x-9)^2 ?

Answer 6

oh ok yes.

Answer 7

Okay, now you wnat to find the x-intercept, any function will intercept the x-axis when the functions equals to zero, that is g(x) = 0, so...
g(x) = (x-9)^2 = 0, now just solve for x and that is your x-intercept

Answer 8

would it be 9

Answer 9

That's right!

Answer 10

thank you!
