Question

On a coordinate plane, 2 cube root functions are shown. Function f (x) goes through (negative 3, negative 1.5), has an inflection point at (0, 0), and goes through (3, 1.5). Function g (x) is 2 units to the left of f (x) and has an inflection point at (negative 2, 0).
The graph of f(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x EndRoot is shown with g(x). Which equation represents the graph of g(x)?

g(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x minus 2 EndRoot
g(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x + 2 EndRoot
g(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x EndRoot + 1
g(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x EndRoot–1

Answer 1

Using translation concepts, it is found that the equation that represents the graph of g(x) is:

$g(x) = \sqrt[3]{x + 2}$.

What is a translation?

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.

In this problem, we have that g(x) is a shift left of 2 units of f(x), hence:

• $f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x}$

• $g(x) = f(x + 2) = \sqrt[3]{x + 2}$
