Let f(x)=9x−1. Match the function with the description. The graph of g is a vertical translation 5 units up of the graph of f

Answer 1

When we shift an equation up on the coordinate plane, we ADD to its b value (y=mx+b)

Remember, f(x) is the same thing as saying 'y'

f(x) = 9x-1

This functions b value is -1. So we will ADD 5 units to it.

-1 + 5 = +4

Our new function will be f(x)=9x+4
