Question

In two or more complete sentences, describe the transformation(s) that take place on the parent function f(x) = 3x to obtain the graph of f(x) = 3-x + 1 - 5.

Answer 1

Logarithmic functions are the inverses of exponential functions.The logarithmic function y=loga(x) is called the logarithmic function with base a .

When a constant c is added to the input of the parent function f(x)=loga(x), the result is a horizontal shift c units in the opposite direction of the sign on c. Our function is shifted 3 units to the right.

It is shifted 2 units vertical.(2 units down).
