Can someone please help me with this assignment? I am having trouble completing this any help is appreciated.

we have

f(x)=0.4x

This function represent a linear direct variation (The line passes through the origin)

we know that

If f(x) is shifting up by 4 units

then

The y-intercept of the function will be the point (0,4)

therefore

The function g(x) will be  > g(x)=0.4x+4 (equation of the line into slope intercept form)

The rule of the translation

f(x) > g(x)

(x,y) > (x,y+4)

The translation is 4 units up

therefore

The value of k=4

Explanation:

when the outside temperature is too cold, an endothermic animal can generate heat by shivering. endothermic animals must eat much more often than ectothermic animals since it takes energy to maintain a constant body temperature.
