shown that t can take on any nonnegative real value. Thus, the domain is the nonnegative real numbers. The
domain represents the amount of time that has passed since the population was initially measured.
Feedback
A The domain is the set of inputs of the function. B The domain is the set of inputs of the function. C That’s correct!
D The domain is the set of inputs of the function. Notice that the population is being modeled as a function of time.

Follow the order of operations to apply the transformations. First, notice that 4 is being added to x inside the
absolute value bars. So, the graph of f(x) is shifted left 4 units. Now, notice that the absolute value
expression is being multiplied by 3
7. So, the graph of f(x) is being vertically shrunk by a factor of 3
7. Finally, 10 is being subtracted from the first term of f(x). So, the graph of f(x) is being shifted down 10 units.
Feedback
A Recall that a horizontal shrink occurs when x is multiplied by a constant k , where
0<k<1, before any horizontal shifts occur.
B In horizontal shifts of the form f(x+k), where k is a constant, the graph is moved in
the opposite direction of the sign of k .
C That’s correct!
D In vertical shifts of the form f(x)+k , where k is a constant, the graph is moved in the
same direction of the sign of k .

Only when the median BMIs increase will the average rate of change in the median BMI be positive.
