The function f(x) is shown below.
f(x) = (3)x - 2
The function f(x) is shifted to the left by 13 units. Which of the following best represents the new function? (4 points)
f(x) = (3)x + 11
f(x) = (3)x + 13
f(x) = (3)x -15
f(x) = (3)x - 13

HINT: to shift f(x) to the left by 13 units, you have to replace x with x-13.Evaluate: f(x-13)

Did you get your answer:)
OpenStudy (itrymath):
C?
OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):
I kinda just gave away the answer if you read closely.

"X-13"
OpenStudy (itrymath):
yeah but there is a 2...
OpenStudy (itrymath):
x-2 +13 = x-15
OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):
It's not asking to solve or is it?
OpenStudy (itrymath):
no

but if we add 13 to the original function that has x-2 wouldnt we get x-15?
OpenStudy (itrymath):
OH im sos sorry !!!! you cant see it

isnt C right @ShadowLegendX

to shift left 13 units, replace every x with (x+13)
\[\Large f(x) = (3)^{x-2}\]
\[\Large f(x+13) = (3)^{x+13-2}\]
\[\Large f(x+13) = (3)^{x+11}\]

OOOH i see
OpenStudy (itrymath):
omg lol so simple and i didnt know xD thanks @jim_thompson5910
