Answer:
The rule of translation is:
- 1 units to the right and 4 units upward.
Explanation:
We know that if the function f(x) is translated k units to the right or left by k units if:
f(x) → f(x+k)
if k>0 then it is shifted k units to the left
and if k<0 then it is shifted k units to the right.
Also, the translation:
f(x) →f(x)+k
is a translation k units upward if k>0
and k units downward if k<0
The parent function is given by:
![y=2\cdot 3^x](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/4y2wszjfqbm00b2ygps7379mvug3jdhr4a.png)
The translated function:
![y=2\cdot 3^(x-1)+4](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/5r6zox5b4jq1apmvf8pzl7vb49zr9k0mnx.png)
is a translation of the parent function 1 units to the right and 4 units upwards.
