Q. Write the equation for

g

that represents the indicated transformation of the graph

f

.

f(x)=\log x

; translation

3

units to the left and

2

units up, followed by a reflection in the

\mathrm{x}

axis

Replace $x$ with $(x + 3)$ : To translate the function $3$ units to the left, we replace $x$ with $(x + 3)$ in the function $f(x) = \log x$ . This gives us the intermediate function $h(x) = \log(x + 3)$ .
Translate $2$ units up: Next, we translate the function $h(x) = \log(x + 3)$ $2$ units up by adding $2$ to the function. This gives us the intermediate function $i(x) = \log(x + 3) + 2$ .
Reflect in x-axis: Finally, to reflect the function $i(x) = \log(x + 3) + 2$ in the x-axis, we multiply the function by $-1$ . This gives us the final function $g(x) = -\log(x + 3) - 2$ .
