Transcript text: The function $h$ (graphed below in blue) is a transformation of function $v$ (graphed in black).
What is the formula for function $h$ in terms of $v$ ?
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Find the vertex of v(x)
The vertex of v(x) is at (0, 4).
Step 2: Find the vertex of h(x)
The vertex of h(x) is at (-6, 4).
Step 3: Determine the horizontal shift
The vertex of h(x) is 6 units to the left of the vertex of v(x). This indicates a horizontal shift of 6 units to the left.
Step 4: Write the transformation
A horizontal shift of 6 units to the left can be represented as v(x + 6).
