what transformation was not done to the linear parent function, f(x)=x, to get the function g(x)=-3(x-4)-7

A. Reflection over the x-axis
B. Shift down 7 units
C. Shift right 4 units
D. Horizontal stretch by a factor of 3

Respuesta :

Answer: D. Horizontal stretch by a factor of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Below are some transformations for a function [tex]f(x)[/tex]:

If [tex]f(x)-k[/tex], then it is shifted "k" units down.

If [tex]f(x-k)[/tex], then it is shifted rigth"k" units.

If [tex]-f(x)[/tex], then it is reflected across the x-axis.

If [tex]cf(x)[/tex] and [tex]c>1[/tex], then it is stretched vertically by a factor of "c".

If [tex]f(cx)[/tex] and [tex]0<c<1[/tex], then it is stretched horizontally by a factor of [tex]\frac{1}{c}[/tex].

Based on this, the transformations done to the function [tex]f(x)=x[/tex]  to get the function [tex]g(x)=-3(x-4)-7[/tex] are:

- It is shifted 7 units down.

- It is shifted rigth 4 units.

- It is reflected over the x-axis.

- It is vertically stretched by a factor of 3.

Therefore, the transformations that was not done to the function [tex]f(x)=x[/tex]  to get the function [tex]g(x)=-3(x-4)-7[/tex] is:

Horizontal stretch by a factor of 3.
