The graph is a transformation of one of the basic functions. find the equation that defines the function.

So anyways the equation appears to be .

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like a cubic to me.

That is the parent function looks like .

I'm going to identify the transformations here by using the zero of the function I called f.  So where has the point (0,0) on wonder to in the new graph.  It appears to be (-4,3).  So the graph moved left 4 units and up 3 units.

f(x+4)+3 moves the graph left 4 and up 3.

----------Other notes:

f(x-4)+3 moves the graph right 4 and up 3.

f(x+4)-3 moves the graph left 4 and down 3.

f(x-4)-3 moves the graph right 4 and down 3.

So anyways the equation appears to be .

think about the doctor who treated the major and the speaker in the short story "in another country." put yourself in the shoes of the doctor, and based on what you read in the story, write what you think his thoughts about the major and the speaker would be. use the following vocabulary in your response and change the form of these words as needed: detached resign withered
