Question

Consider the function f(x) = 3x + 1 and the graph of the function g(x) shown below.

A coordinate plane linear graph function shows a line intersecting Y-axis at minus 5 and X-axis at 1.5.
The graph g(x) is the graph of f(x) translated units , and g(x) =

Answer 1

g(x) is a translation of 6 units downwards.

How to identify the translation that generates g(x)?

Here we have the function:

y = f(x) = 3x + 1

Notice that the y-intercept of f(x) is:

f(0) = 3*0 + 1 = 1

The y-intercept of f(x) is y = 1.

Now, we know that the y-intercept of g(x) is -5. then:

g(x) = 3x - 5 = f(x) - 6

Meaning that g(x) is a translation of 6 units downwards.
