Question

The parent function f(x) = 5 ^ x has been venically compressed by a factor of one-half shifted to the three units and up two units choose the correct function

Answer 1

See the explanation

Explanation:

The given function is:

f(x) = 5ˣ

Transformation of a parent function is given by the formula:

g(x) = k · f(x + a) + b

Where

k represents vertical compression if |k| < 1 and k represents vertical stretch of |k| > 1

f(x) shifts left by a units if a>0 and f(x) shift right by a units if a<0

f(x) shift up by b units if b>0 and f(x) shifts down by b units if b<0

In the question it is given:

k = 1/2

Shifts right by 3 units ⇒ a = -3

Shift up by 2 units ⇒ b = 2

Substitute in the formula:

g(x) = (1/2) · f(x - 3) + 2

`g(x) = (1)/(2)\cdot5^(x-3)+2`
