24. 23. The functions y1=(x-3)5+1 and y2=(x+2)5+5 are graphed on the same axes. Explain how the graph of y2 can be obtained by a translation of y1.
Shifted left 5 and up 4.

25. 24. What are the x and y-intercepts for f(x)= 3_ ? 1-x
Y-intercept is 3 and there isn’t an x-intercept
To find the y-intercept, set x=0 so you get y= 3/(1-0), which is 3.
To find the x-intercept, set y=0 so you get 0=3/(1-x) This can never equal 0.

26. 25. Graph y=-3

27. What is the equation of the line that passes through (1,4) and is perpendicular to y = 2/3 x + 5?

28. 27. Graph the piecewise function: y= -2x if x≤ -1 = 2 if x> -1
Is this a function?
What is the domain?
What is the range?
Yes
(-∞, ∞)
[2, ∞)

29. 28. Graph y = 2|x+2| - 3
Notice the vertex is at (-2,-3) and the V is skinnier than the parent graph because the slope to the right of the vertex is 2 and the slope to the left of the vertex is -2
(goes up 2, over 1)
