Which transformation should be applied to the graph of the function y=cot(x) to obtain the graph of the function y=6 cot(3x-pi/2)+4

The correct answer is the first one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's analyse the effect of each modification in the function.

The value 6 multiplying the cot function means a vertical stretch.

The value of 3 multiplying the x inside the function is a horizontal compression, which causes the period to be 3 times lower the original period.

The original period of the cotangent function is pi, so the horizontal compression will make the period be pi/3.

The value of -pi/2 inside the cotangent function normally causes a horizontal shift of pi/2 to the right, but the x-values were compressed by a factor of 3 (horizontal stretch), so the horizontal shift will be 3 times lower: (pi/2) /3 = pi/6

And the value of 4 summing the whole equation is a vertical shift of 4 units up.

So the correct answer is the first one.

I'm actually fairly certain it's the last option... lmk if you need more of an explanation

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3
