Question

Given that (-3,7) is on the graph of f(x), find the corresponding point for the function f(x+5)?

Answer 1

(-8,7)

Explanation:

We know that `f(-3) = 7`

Therefore, if we wish to get the output as 7, in the function, we need to have our input to be -3.

Looking at the function `f(x+5)`, what should the value of x be, such that the input in the function becomes 7?

We simply equate the terms,

`x+5 = -3`

`x = -8`

Thus, the point on the new function would be `(-8,7)`
