So in this problem we have the function Y equals F of X. And it's been translated and transformed to the function Why equals G F X. And were asked right, the function then G F X in the form a F of B times x minus H plus. Okay, Okay. So first of all, let's do this. If we look at the function F of X up here, right? It's it hits here at -2 goes up deposit for right now goes up positive for goes back down at Looking to be one Because these are in increments of two. It was meant one and back up to four. one where X is one. The other graph G of X goes down first starting from the left and then up and then back down. So it's like the mirror image of each other, aren't they? Okay. So that tells me that A is negative because I need to flip F of X over. All. Right. If I flip F of X over, then what happens instead of hitting? So it starts here at minus two and instead of going up to positive for it would go down to negative for right. So it would go this way and then that way and in that way. Okay, So that starts to get me there now. Okay, what else do I notice? Well, I notice that the left most point right Is still at zero for why? Right. And The lowest points are at -4 for why? Which is still happening? So there's really not a shift up or down. So that tells me that K is zero, right? I don't have a shift since K is adding to the whole function, I don't have a shift up or down on this at all going on. Okay. Now that just means that we got to get this spread out, right? We got to get it to go, oh that way, don't we back and forth? Okay, well, so when X is zero, I'm trying to get Instead of -1, I'm trying to get I'm sorry sir, my -2. No, When X is -2, I need that to be -7, don't i? And still get zero for this thing. And so what did I do? I shifted this point on X. I shifted it left five. Right, mm, Okay, but then this point here is that three? I needed to become 13, so I need it to be shifted 10 that direction, Don't I? Mm. Okay, well, okay, so we're looking at these shifts and all and let's begin by noticing at this point that uh huh we shift at this point right here over three. Right, So when X is three, I'm doing f of zero, aren't i? Okay, so that right there tells me so far that G fx is minus F of X minus three. Right, okay. Is zero. Of course I know that much so far. Now we know that F of F Of Zero, right, it's -4. So whatever we put in here for B will still make this true for this point. So let's look at this shift right here. Okay, so we need to go from -2 Over 2 -7. In other words I put -7 in for X. Right? So I have G -7 his minus F of something times -7 -3. Right? Not minus 30 minus three. Okay well so that's minus F of B Times -10 in it. And I want To get f of -2. So let's put b Go to to over 10 in other words 1/5 and watch what happens. So now I have G fx is minus F of 1/5 times x -3. So now let's look at what happens, I put -7 in there for X. I get -10 Divided by five is -2 and F of -2 is zero. So that ties now, guess when this point tied up We have when X is three I get zero, Next -3 would be zero. F 0 is 4 -4. So I just tied that point. So let's try this one now. eight. Well, So that means 8 -3 is five times 1/5. That's one. So it's F of one. What F of one is zero? So that ties? Let's check this one. Last point 13. So X is 13, 13 months, three is 10, 10 divided by five is too So it means f of two. Well f of two is is for Negative, gives me -4. And so there is our function with all the shifts on it, all the transformations.

Continuity - Overview

In mathematics, a continuous function is a function for which sufficiently small changes in the input result in arbitrarily small changes in the output. Otherwise, a function is said to be a discontinuous function.
