Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identifying Stretch/Compression and Reflection
The parameter \(a = 2\) determines the vertical stretch/compression and reflection. Vertically stretched by a factor of 2.
Step 2: Identifying Shifts
The parameter \(h = 0\) determines the horizontal shift. No horizontal shift.
The parameter \(k = 0\) determines the vertical shift. No vertical shift.
Step 3: Identifying Base Change
The parameter \(b = 10\) affects the growth rate of the function. The base of the logarithm is 10, which is common.
Final Answer:
The function \(g(x) = 2\log_{10}(x + 0) + 0\) is characterized by the following transformations:
