Question 933031: I am confused how to solve this:
Let f(x) =
* The graph of function g is created by
* stretching the graph vertically by a factor of 40,
* then shifting the graph of f down 6 units,
* and finally shifting the graph right 5 units .
Find the function g.
g(x) =
I sadly don't understand any of this, what are they asking me to do exactly?
Thank you

"stretching the graph vertically by a factor of 40" means we go from to

"then shifting the graph of f down 6 units" has us tacking on a "-6" like this:

"and finally shifting the graph right 5 units " tells us to replace 'x' with 'x-5' to get

Therefore,

This isn't the answer but it will lead you to it. Hopefully this helps point you in the right direction. If not, then let me know. Thanks.
