Answer :
The value of k is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us revise the vertical translation
1. If the function f(x) translated vertically up by k units, then the new
function g(x) = f(x) + k , that means we add every y-coordinate of the
points lie on the graph of f(x) by k
Ex: If point (x , y) lies on f(x), then its image is (x , y + k) lies on g(x)
2. If the function f(x) translated vertically down by k units, then the new
function g(x) = f(x) – k , that means we subtract every y-coordinate
of the points lie on the graph of f(x) by k
Ex: If point (x , y) lies on f(x), then its image is (x , y - k) lies on g(x)
∵ g(x) = f(x) + k
∴ g(x) is the image of f(x) by translation k units up
∵ The graph of line f(x) going through ordered pair (0 , -2)
∵ The graph of line g(x) going through ordered pair (0 , 2)
∵ The image of ordered pair(x , y) by translation k units up is
(x , y + k)
∴ y = -2 and y + k = 2
- Substitute the value of y
∴ -2 + k = 2
- Add 2 to both sides
∴ k = 4
The value of k is 4
V.I.Note:
Point (1 , 4) is not the image of point (2 , 2) because the x-coordinates
of the two points are not equal, vertical translation changes the
y-coordinates only, the image of point (2 , 2) is (2 , 6) and point (1 , 4)
is the image of point (1 , 0)
