The function f(x)=−4x+3 is a linear function. Let g(x) represent f(x) after a horizontal translation 2 units to the left. What is the equation for g(x) ? Enter the answer in the box. g(x) = ( please help me i am in tears )
Let me help you with that. Simply put, it is 4x+1.
It keeps the same slope, but just starts over to the left 2 from the original equation.
Following are the calculation to the g(x) function:
Given:
f(x)=-4x+3
g(x)=f(x) after a horizontal translation 2 units
To find:
g(x)=?
Solution:
A horizontal translation, in short, implies f("x + some number"), its value is now 2, and this is to the left, so f(x + 2)
\(\to \bold{\left \{ {{f(x)=-4x+3} \atop {g(x)=f(x+2)}} \right} \\\\\\\to \bold{f(x+2)}=-4(x+2)+3}\)
\(\bold{= -4x-8+3}\\\\ \bold{=-4x-5}\\\\\)
\(\therefore \\\\\to \bold{g(x)= -4x-5} = \bold{-(4x+5)}\)
Therefore, the final answer is "\(\bold{-(4x+5)}\)"
