Write the equation for an absolute value function with the following transformations: translate left 9 units, stretch by a factor of 5, and translate down 23 units

j(x) = 5 |x+9|-23

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = |x|

translate left 9 units

y = f(x + C)  C > 0 moves it left

g(x) = |x+9|

translate down 23 units

y = f(x) + CC < 0 moves it down

h(x)= |x+9|-23

stretch by a factor of 5  

y = Cf(x)   C > 1 stretches it in the y-direction

j(x) = 5 |x+9|-23

final total: 63

step-by-step explanation:

60 times sales tax

60 times 0.05

3

60 + 3

63
