The graph of the reciprocal parent function, f(x) = 1/x, is shifted 5 units up and 8 units to the left to create the graph of g(x). What function is g(x)?

Respuesta :

The graph of the reciprocal parent function, f(x) = 1/x will be g(x) = 1/(x + 8) + 5. The correct answer is option A.

What is a parent function?

A parent function in mathematics is the simplest function in a family of functions that keeps the definition of the entire family. A graph is the representation of the data on the vertical and horizontal coordinates so we can see the trend of the data.

The function g(x) will be calculated as:-

Staring with 1/x a shift up of 5 units makes it 1/x + 5. A shift of 8 to the left makes it 1/(x + 8) + 5.

The graph of both the functions f(x) and g(x) is attached with the answer below.

Therefore, the graph of the reciprocal parent function, f(x) = 1/x will be g(x) = 1/(x + 8) + 5. The correct answer is option A.

The complete question with options is attached in the figure with the answer below.
