The solid line is the parent function, f(x). Which of the following dotted line graphs shows the translation of f(x) = f(x + 0.5)?

Ashoka:

f(x+.5) will translate the parent funciton .5 units to the left. So which do you think the correct answer is?

687vhlovdjfl:

the 3erd picture

Ashoka:

I said to the left

687vhlovdjfl:

the first one

Ashoka:

687vhlovdjfl:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Ashoka .5 units not 1 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) the last one

jhonyy9:

so look please on the first graph the line intersect the axe ox on 1 and the oy in -2 yes ? and now try get the graph where you see the line intersect the axe ox on point of 1+,5 so this is equal how many ?

687vhlovdjfl:

the 2 one

jhonyy9:

no on the second one to the x = 1 not ad ,5 there is subtracted ,5 from 1

687vhlovdjfl:

the last one

jhonyy9:

no on the last one is added to x not one half is added 1 you need adding just one half

687vhlovdjfl:

the 3 one

jhonyy9:

yes exactly do you understand now the way ?

687vhlovdjfl:

yes

jhonyy9:

thank you

jhonyy9:

yw anytime

@jhonyy9 attention, you are incorrect.\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Ashoka f(x+.5) will translate the parent funciton .5 units to the left. So which do you think the correct answer is? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) The solid line is the parent function, and we are translating .5 units to the left so it is the 2nd option or the 3rd picture
