Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the graph of f(x)=2xf(x)=2x and the graph of g(x)=f(x)−4g(x)=f(x)−4 ? The graph of g(x)g(x) is the graph of f(x)f(x) translated 4 units right. The graph of g(x)g(x) is the graph of f(x)f(x) translated 4 units up. The graph of g(x)g(x) is the graph of f(x)f(x) translated 4 units down. The graph of g(x)g(x) is the graph of f(x)f(x) translated 4 units left.
The ANWSER is b
can you explain how and why it is the correct answer?
hey @zepdrix
Because anything below the line is always going to be greater than or greater than and less than
anyone else have a different answer?
I want all the possibilities
That's how I came up with the ANWSER but I'm sure zepdrix will break it down
alright, thank you @mrs.ambrose614
Welcome
@zepdrix ?
what... what's going on? +_+ I just got here
f(x) = 2x g(x) = f(x) - 4 Is that what we've got going on? I see a bunch of stuff repeated so it's a little hard to read.
okay, I will fix it for you...
Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the graph of f(x) = 2x and the graph of g(x)=f(x)-4 @zepdrix I guess the copy/paste of the problem cause it to repeat the equations... Sorry about that
f(x) = 2x g(x) = f(x) - 4 So then g(x) = 2x - 4
Maybe this is an easier way to think of it... f(x) is like y. y=2x Now you have this new function which subtracts 4 from every y value, g(x) = y-4 So every point gets shifted DOWN by 4 units. Does that make .. some sense?
A little, so would the answer be C. then?
Yes :) option C
thanks, can you help me with 4 more? in different questions?
