To create g(x),f(x)g(x), f(x) was -Choose the correct answer - - , then was \qquad and then was -Choose the correct answer - . - Choose the correct answer - stretched vertically by a factor of 4 Clear All compressed vertically by a factor 4

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

What is this asking? How do we transform the function f(x)=x3f(x) = x^3 into g(x)=4(x6)32g(x) = 4(x-6)^3 - 2? Watch out! Remember the order of transformations matters!

STEP 2

1. Horizontal Shift
2. Vertical Stretch
3. Vertical Shift

STEP 3

We **start** with f(x)=x3f(x) = x^3.
To get the (x6)(x-6) part in g(x)g(x), we need to **shift** f(x)f(x) **horizontally** to the **right** by **6 units**.

STEP 4

This gives us a **new function**, let's call it h(x)=(x6)3h(x) = (x-6)^3.
Remember, shifting to the *right* means *subtracting* from xx.

STEP 5

Now, we need that **4** in front.
This means we **vertically stretch** h(x)h(x) by a **factor of 4**.

STEP 6

**Multiplying** the function by **4** gives us another **new function**, let's call it j(x)=4(x6)3j(x) = 4(x-6)^3.

STEP 7

Finally, we have that 2-2 at the end.
This means we **shift** j(x)j(x) **downwards vertically** by **2 units**.

STEP 8

**Subtracting 2** gives us our **final function** g(x)=4(x6)32g(x) = 4(x-6)^3 - 2.

STEP 9

f(x)f(x) was shifted to the **right** by **6**, then **stretched vertically** by a factor of **4**, and then shifted **down** by **2**.
