didn't we solve this yesterday? we got 25

smithm29:

yeah idk y they asked it again,,,

Vocaloid:

we also solved this yesterday

Vocaloid:

budget is less than/equal to 65,000 more expensive tree >= less expensive tree

Vocaloid:

*56,000

Vocaloid:

when you see (x+h) in the transformation, you get shifted left h units so f(x+2) is the graph of x^2 shifted left 2 units

smithm29:

smithm29:

do u need to see the graphs?

Vocaloid:

not really, again, since we have f(x+1) we shift the graph of f(x) = x^3 to the left 1 unit

smithm29:

1 attachment
smithm29:

would we go to the left 3?

Vocaloid:

yes

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

if you see f(x-h) it gets moved to the right h units so f(x-4) is f(x) moved to the right 4 units

smithm29:

Vocaloid:

the +2 is outside the parentheses so we move the function up 2 units

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

the -5 is outside the parentheses so we move down 5 units

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

the (1/4) is inside the parentheses so the function gets "squished" (let me try sketching)

Vocaloid:

|dw:1501514700652:dw|

Vocaloid:

|dw:1501514729361:dw|

smithm29:

Vocaloid:

same thing, the function gets "flatter"

Vocaloid:

|dw:1501514834432:dw|

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

function gets "stretched" so the slope becomes steeper

Vocaloid:

|dw:1501514894133:dw|

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

since the stretch factor is less than 1 the graph becomes less steep

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

stretch factor is >1 so graph becomes steeper

smithm29:

Vocaloid:

does it show you the graph of f(x)?

smithm29:

no not this one

Vocaloid:

since it gets shifted to the right 1 unit I guess I would add 1 to the x-value to get (2,5)? hm.

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

add 4 to the x-value to get (2,-1)

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

subtract 2 from the x-coordinate

smithm29:

so (0,9)?

Vocaloid:

good

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

add 4 to the y-coordinate

smithm29:

5,8?

Vocaloid:

good

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

subtract 4 from the y-coordinate

smithm29:

2,-1

Vocaloid:

good

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

hm. I ~believe~ you would multiply the x-coordinate by (3/4)

smithm29:

so -4 1/2,-5

Vocaloid:

I think so :S

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

multiply x-coordinate by (-2/3)

Vocaloid:

ok so the little circle thing means we put f(x) as x into equation g(x)

Vocaloid:

g(x) = x^2 = (-x-2)^2 if x = - 6, then (-x-2)^2 = ?

smithm29:

40?

Vocaloid:

do the parentheses first if x = -6, then -x - 2 = ?

smithm29:

4?

Vocaloid:

good, and 4^2 = ?

smithm29:

16

Vocaloid:

good so 16 = your ans

smithm29:

Vocaloid:

similar as before f(x) = 2x + 6 g(x) = x^3 g(x) dot f(x) = (2x+6)^3, and if x = 0, then this equals...?

smithm29:

216?

Vocaloid:

again, parentheses first if x = 0, 2x + 6 = ?

smithm29:

6

smithm29:

?

Vocaloid:

good and 6^3 = ?

smithm29:

216

Vocaloid:

oh you were right the first time, it's 216 >>

Vocaloid:

as your answer

smithm29:

Vocaloid:

same thing g dot f(x) = (7x+8)^4 x = 0 ans = ?

smithm29:

4096?

Vocaloid:

good

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

f(x) = -x+ 7 g(x) = square root(x-3) f dot g(x) = -square root(x-3) + 7 x = 4 ans = ?

smithm29:

-9.6?

Vocaloid:

not quite start with the parentheses if x = 4, then x - 3 = 1 square root of 1 = 1 -square root of 1 = -1 (- square root of 1) + 7 = 6 = your answer

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

if g(x) = sqare root(x+1) and x = 24, what is g(x)?

smithm29:

um... idk

smithm29:

how do i square root x?

Vocaloid:

start with the parentheses first if x = 24, then x + 1 = 25 what's the square root of 25?

smithm29:

5

smithm29:

so the answer would be 5?

Vocaloid:

not yet

Vocaloid:

now we plug that into f(x) if x = 5, then f(x) = -9x + 9 = ?

smithm29:

so -36 is the answer?

Vocaloid:

good, yes

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

same thing as before x = 7 g(x) = square root(x-6) g(x) = ?

smithm29:

1

Vocaloid:

good, now we re-substitute back into f(x) x = 1 f(x) = -5x - 1 = ?

smithm29:

-6

Vocaloid:

good, that's your ans

smithm29:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

f dot g = (-9x+3)^4 = ans

Vocaloid:

can we open a new question after this

smithm29:

yeah

smithm29:

is -6554 right?

Vocaloid:

no, it's asking for a function, not a number

Vocaloid:

(-9x+3)^4 = answer

smithm29:

oh lol
