Try This 3

You will now explore graphing logarithmic functions using transformations.

1. In a table similar to the one shown, identify each parameter for the function y = log10(x − 3) + 4 when in the form
   
   

   Parameter	Value of Parameter	Description of Transformation
   a	1	no transformation
   b	1	no transformation
   h
   k

2. In your table, indicate the corresponding transformations for each parameter.
3. Sketch the function y = log10 x.
4. Apply the transformations described in the table to the sketch of y = log10x to sketch the graph of y = log10(x − 3) + 4.
5. Graph y = log10(x − 3) + 4 using technology, and then compare this to the sketch you created in question 4.
