Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are given the function f(x)=4x+5+8 f(x) = 4|x+5| + 8 .
2. We need to find the function g(x) g(x) which is the translation of f(x) f(x) 1 unit up.
3. The answer should be in the form axh+k a|x-h|+k .

STEP 2

1. Understand the effect of translating a function vertically.
2. Apply the vertical translation to f(x) f(x) .
3. Express the translated function in the desired form axh+k a|x-h|+k .

STEP 3

Understand that translating a function 1 unit up involves adding 1 to the entire function.

STEP 4

Apply the vertical translation to f(x) f(x) :
g(x)=f(x)+1 g(x) = f(x) + 1
Substitute the expression for f(x) f(x) :
g(x)=4x+5+8+1 g(x) = 4|x+5| + 8 + 1

STEP 5

Simplify the expression:
g(x)=4x+5+9 g(x) = 4|x+5| + 9

STEP 6

Express g(x) g(x) in the form axh+k a|x-h|+k :
Here, a=4 a = 4 , h=5 h = -5 , and k=9 k = 9 .
The function g(x) g(x) is:
g(x)=4x+5+9 g(x) = 4|x+5| + 9
