My son is taking Pre-Calculus 12 (in BC), and we need help with this question:
If the point (m, n) is on the curve y = f(x) where does (m, n) end up after these transformations?
[math]y = \frac{1}{2}f^{-1} (x+5)+8[/math]
Here is what we tried, which is wrong:
[math]m \rightarrow n-5[/math],
[math]n \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}m + 8[/math]
The normal adjustments, but swapping m and n to account for the inversion.
I can't find any examples of this kind of question online (e.g. Khan academy). Lots of absolute value examples, and it should be the same process, but I can't figure it out.
Thank you!
