P(4,9) \"y=expr%281%2F3%29f%28expr%281%2F2%29x%29-1\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "Since we know that P(4,9) is on the graph of y=f(x),\r\n" );
document.write( "that means that f(4)=9\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The equation above contains \"f%28expr%281%2F2%29x%29\", \r\n" );
document.write( "and since we know that f(4)=9, then if \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"expr%281%2F2%29x=4\"\r\n" );
document.write( "then\r\n" );
document.write( "\"x+=+8\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore substituting x=8 in the original equation,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=expr%281%2F3%29f%28expr%281%2F2%29x%29-1\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=expr%281%2F3%29f%28expr%281%2F2%29%2A8%29-1\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=expr%281%2F3%29f%284%29-1\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=expr%281%2F3%29%289%29-1\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=3-1\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=2\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So the corresponding point = (8,2)\r\n" );
