To shift to the right you need to make it MINUS the amount of units
f(x) = 2x + 4
to shift 5 to right
f(x) = 2x + 4 - 5
f(x) = 2x - 1
Since the equation is f(x) = 2x - k
We already have the minus in the k, so k isnt equal to -1, its equal to 1.
Alternative 1.
Answer:
k is equal to 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a geometric transformation called, translation, therefore the shifted function f'(x) is parallel to f(x), then the slope m=2 remains the same for f'(x). So f'(x)=2x -k. The shifting is five units to the right then, we have to subtract -5 to f(x)=2x+4, so:
[tex]f'(x)=2x-k\Rightarrow f'(x)=2x+(4-5)\Rightarrow f'(x)=2x-1[/tex]
Proving the 5 units shifting
f(x)=2x+4
x| y
1 | 6
2|8
f'(x)=2x-1
x|y
1| 1
2|3
Notice that every number ∈ to the Range of f(x) has a difference of 5 units when compared to f'(x) Range values.
6-1=5
8-3=5
