1. Suppose we have the function f(x) = = and then we transform it by moving it four units to the
right and six units down, reflecting it horizontally, and stretching vertically by 5 units. What will
the formula of our new function g(x) be? (2 points)
g(x) =

Time (minutes)
(a) How large is the circular area of the spill 30 minutes after it was first observed? Give your answer in terms of π.
square feet
(b) If the cost to clean the oil spill is proportional to the square of the diameter of the spill, express the cost, C, as a
function of the radius of the spill, r. Use a lower case k as the proportionality constant.
C(r) =
(c) Which of the following expressions could be used to represent the amount of time it took for the radius of the spill to
increase from 20 feet to 60 feet?
r(60) - r(20)
