Question

Find g(x), where g(x) is the translation 3 units up of f(x)=x.

Write your answer in the form mx+b, where m and b are integers.
g(x)=

Answer 1

g(x) = x + 3

Explanation:

The goal is to move the expression f(x) = x up by three units.

this can be written as: y = 1x + 0 in slope (m) intercept (b) format [y=mx+b)

Or simply y = x

To move y = x up by three, just add three:

g(x) = x + 3,

All points from y = 3 are now translated up by three.
