The red graph can be generated by stretching the blue graph of y = log4x. Write the equation that describes the red graph. y = log4 4x The red graph can be generated by stretching and reflecting the graph of y = log4x. Write the equation that describes the red graph. y = -3log4x Math 30-1 7

The solid graph can be generated by translating the dashed graph of y = log4x. Write the equation that describes the solid graph. y = log4 (x)+1 The graph of y = log2x has been vertically stretched about the x-axis by a factor of 3 , horizontally stretched about the y-axis by a factor of 1/5 , reflected in the x-axis, and translated of 7 units left and 2 units up. Write the equation of the transformed function in the form y = a log2 (b(x - h) + k. y = -3 log2 (5(x + 7) + 2 Math 30-1 8
