NEED HELP BADLY! NEEDS TO BE DONE BY TOMORROW ~*WILL MEDAL AND FAN!*~ 3. Complete Parts a, b, and c. a. Graph the function f(x) = |x + 2|. b. Translate the graph according to the rule (x,y) to (x-3,y) c. Write the function equation for the graph in Part b. Name the function g(x). *This is the part of the question I am having major problems with...* Answer:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how are you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm ok... I just really need help with this.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know the part a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, I already graphed it as (-4,2),(-3,1),(-2,0),(-1,1), and (0,2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it should be something like this:|dw:1433437736059:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, that's what it looks like, the problem I have is that after I translate the graph by x-3 I can't seem to write a function for it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now what you need to do for the part b is to graph y=|(x-3)+2|=|x-1|. okay?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah, ok I think I see the problem, I just subtracted by x-3 instead of simplifying it to x-1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in fact, part c is what we just obtained from the part b.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, I see that now, thank you so much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks. good luck friend!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good luck to you too! ^.^
