Transformation of Graphs

The word ‘transformation’ means modification. Transformation of the graph of a function is a process by which we modify or change the original graph and make a new graph.

Exponential Functions

The exponential function is a type of mathematical function which is used in real-world contexts. It helps to find out the exponential decay model or exponential growth model, in mathematical models. In this topic, we will understand descriptive rules, c…

The cup on the 9th hole of a golf course is located dead center in the middle of a circular green which is 40 feet in radius. Your ball is located as in the picture below. The ball follows a straight line path and exits the green at the right-most edge. Assume the ball travels 8 ft/sec. Introduce coordinates so that the cup is the origin of an xy-coordinate system and start by writing down the equations of the circle and the linear path of the ball. Provide numerical answers below with two decimal places of accuracy. 50 feet green ball 40 feet 9 cup ball path rough (a) The x-coordinate of the position where the ball enters the green will be (b) The ball will exit the green exactly seconds after it is hit. (c) Suppose that L is a line tangent to the boundary of the golf green and parallel to the path of the ball. Let Q be the point where the line is tangent to the circle. Notice that there are two possible positions for Q. Find the possible x-coordinates of Q: smallest x-coordinate =…
