@Hero
for #3 you would apply [\log_{b} \] to both sides
(should be log base b)
and then for #4 consider the fact you are multiplying x by 2 (a horizontal transformation) and subtracting 4 from x (another horizontal transformation)
thank you i'll show you my answers so far
@Vocaloid
@Vocaloid is3 c
good
yay
give me a sec i'll show you my first 4 answers in a bit
is it too blurry
@Vocaloid
4 is b?
I don't think #1 is right
that's what another person here told me i didn't think so either
i thought c
as a hint: use your exponent rules to re-write 4^(1-x) as a quotient
good, c is right
see i do know some of this and someone said i was wrong
is 2 right or is it d i originally had d someone else said d is wrong
2 is c, good
the reason you eliminate the negative solution is because your log functions each need to be positive or 0
ok so the first 3 are c lol
check 4 again
4 b?
ok
(x-h) means a horizontal shift by h units to the right
so then 2 it is a shift by 2
look at the original problem
i graphed it though?
how does it not shift 2 units though every direction it does
and it shrinks?
it's 2x-4?
it's easier to see the shift if you only consider one transformation at a time.
ok
if you try plotting log(2x-4) it can be confusing to see the shift especially with a bad scale/axes
so 4 compressed
no
you have f and g backwards?
now I'm confused ?
switched
ok horizontally it stretches it appears
right?
I have only applied one transformation ( the shift to the right by 4 units )
I have not applied the stretch/shrink yet
ok I'm tried graphing into mathway one minute it doesnt want to graph and the next idk
it's very hard to see graphically but it gets compressed horizontally
you also need to be able to do these algebraically without looking at graphs
so I was right about compression
when you multiply x by a number greater than 1 it's a horizontal compression, yes
ok and the 4 kinda gives it away that it is 4 and the only options are to the right
combine the two logs inside the brackets into one log expression using your log rules
is it b?
a is wrong d doesn't make sense and c i didn't get -3 as a bottom
good, b
yay
I don't remember how to do 6, but it would involve a change of base
i am basically dividing what i got for a decimal to see which one it is hold on
it's c
the decimal is a negative so that means a or c and the decimal is -1.19....
sure, go with that
7 is just graphing to see what the graph is so i figured that out
is taht supposed to be 0.5?
probably
it would be c right
I'm actually getting a bit too exhausted to process this properly @Hero could you spare a moment?
d wouldn't make sense -5 to -4
any negative number value for x would make the left side greater in value than the right if it is positive it would make the right side larger
